What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Texas
About two months ago I was arrested for abstaining prescription drugs illegally. At the time of arrest I admitted how many times I did it and where. At the court date with the lawyer I did the same. I was given a plea and deferment for 2 years with a fine and community service. Then after this about three weeks later a detective from the town I live in which is right outside the city I committed the crime is going after me for the same charge. I told them everything as I did before and how I admitted all the rest in my court date before I was put on probation. The city I live in is the a different city and county then I was originally charged, but it is the same crime I even confessed to before. So is it possible the will still go after me or does the double jeopardy rule fall into place? Since I am on probation will this violate that because they file charges against me for the same crime?
