What is the name of your state? California...
I am 20 years old, I was visiting my 22 year old boyfriend at his school where he lives on campus. My boyfriend smokes marijuana, I do occasionally, but on this night I did not smoke. Another student complained of the "smell of smoke" and the RA from the school came up knocking on the door, I was about to fall asleep, and the RA and Cop unlocked the door, my boyfriend who had just smoked jumped up inorder to keep them out of his room & talked to the cop outside, The cop did not know that i was inside, but I am a very honest and cooperative person, and I knew i didnt do anything wrong, so I went out and asked the cop if he needed anything from me. He took my ID and was very rude. He accused me of smoking marijuana and told me that my eyes were red and glazed over. I did not smoke, I only had 4 hours of sleep the night before and I was laying down to take a nap when they let themeselves into the room. I was very upset and shaking and the cop told me I would get a letter in the mail about a court date and a fine, and I could go to court if I want to fight it. He took my boyfriends pipe, but no weed and obviosly nothing of mine. So I have a few questions, The cop gava no documentation of the incident, and didnt have my boyfriend or i sign anything, he didnt give us a citation, I dont even know the cops name and Im not sure how i can follow up on this incident. How can i be in possesion when he took no evidence from me. He took a pipe from my boyfriend, but we cannot both possess one thing. Can i be charged with something like this simply because "my eyes were red". What will go on my record and what will the fine be?? Im very confused and worried about all of this and the cop really left me hanging... any help is appreciated!!!
