What is the name of your state?pa - my son was sitting in front of his friends house waiting for him to come home - friend pulls up behind him and he sees him flashing his lights - my son gets out of his car and walks over to his friends car - next thing he knows there is a policeman there telling him to empty his pockets - he has 2 1/2 ounces of pot on him - we get called from him to come to police station - and to bring his brother with us - we go there and his file is sitting on the desk - policeman proceeds to tell us that he gave them a name and my other son is ther eto verify this name because he had lived with him for a while - he is told to contact the vice squad within the next few days and things will procees from there - i am told that my sons file can sit on this mans desk for up to 2 years - my son was not arrested - processed - nothing - car was not impounded - nothing was done at all - i find this all very strange and i am wondering what is going on - so my friends are saying to me that he needs to get a lawyer and not to talk to vice until they hvae a lawyer present - how could he get picked up with that much and be let go with nothing - what is going on here - last night im sitting in my living room and a police car goes by real slow to the point that i thought he was going to stop - he pulls into a parking place across the street and just sits there - does anyone out there of any ideas as to what could be happening- the policeman said that hopefully with my sons cooperation the charge could be dropped to a misdemenor - he was sitting on the bench when i got to the station - anyone have any thoughts on this situation - he has not been in trouble before - thanks
