What is the name of your state? NC
In order to be convicted of possession the prosecutor has to prove all three of the following.
1. That the person had physical possession of the marijuana or dominion and control over it.
2. That the person had knowledge of the marijuana's presence. 3. That there was a sufficient amount of marijuana to use as a controlled substance.
How does the prosecutor prove that someone had knowledge of its presence if they deny it? Lets assume someone was driving around with marijuana under the passenger seat... or if it was under the passenger seat and there was a passenger? There would be no way to tell whose it was. Is the driver supposed to frisk everyone who enters his car?
