Do I need a lawyer? What is the name of your state? NY
my friend (mr. X for this thread) from high school was arrested in California sometime ago, he was attending college there at the time, and was arrested on charges of assault/possession of a firearm + drug possession/distribution charges. we were friend in high school but i have not talked talked to him for at least half a year before his arrest, and since we graduated from high school, i talked with him half a dozen times at most. He went to college in California, I attended a college on the East Coast.
heres the problem, the police apparently found a hit list in his residence in California, with names of over 25 people, someone working with his defense team contacted me and informed me that mr. X told them that i, along with 2 other people, were co authors of this list. now i was read the names of some people that appeared on the list, and they included a friend of mines, however, nearly all of the names i do not recognize (but i was told all these names are of people from our high school, which had nearly 700 graduating seniors that year). i knew nothing of this list, nor did i know anything about his problems in CA, we barely talked and only met him twice since graduation (2005), last time i talked to him was about a year ago. just wondering what i should do to protect my self, from what i was told, mr.X have a lot of problems, drugs, delusional, ect. he was an honor student in high school but now apparently have a 0.00 GPA in college, even his parents didn't know what was going on.
any input will be greatly appreciated. |
