Cops got a warrent based on an anonymous informant writing a letter containing lies,to the police (revenge) and an arrest of some stranger who claimed they purchased drugs from my boyfriend. We know this was made up by the police because he never sold any drugs. He was an addict for a short time and then cleaned up his act. Anyway, he wasn't charged with dealing because no useable amount of heroin was found and no money was found. But a glass flask with some residue and some alchohol was found along with some dried poppies that were purchased at the flower shop and some literature on drugs and how heroin is made. The residue in the flask was from his attempt to clean the drug to make it safer for him to administer. The dried poppies (12 dried flowers) he had as a novelty item. He was interested in how heroin was made, but he didn't even have the chemicals needed to make heroin from dried poppies. They are accusing him of making the residue that was found in the flask from the dried poppies. But it would be physically impossible to make heroin with the common materials he. they took my painting chemicals like Turpentine and cleaning products as "evidence". He is facing a very serious felony if convicted for manufacturing. We know that it is impossible to manufacture heroin without a sophisticated lab and specific chemicals which he didn't have. We have a good lawyer who thinks there is a very small chance everything might be suppressed because the warrant should not have been issued on such a flimsy affidavit, but he has been offered a plea bargain of no jail time, 6 months in a sober living home with FIVE years probation if he pleads guilty to manufacturing. He doesn't want to plead guilty to something he didn't do and he thinks five years probation is too long because if god forbid he relapses or if a drug test during those five years comes back positive, he could face 7 years in jail. (he told me he would commit suicide if he had to do 7 years.) He is an educated, a good person and not someone you would think belongs in jail. To show his good intentions, he moved into a soberliving home 4 months ago, even though he hasn't officially accepted the plea bargain yet and isn't on probation yet. His next court date is Jan 29th, so please give advice ASAP. Should he fight this case, or is he bound to lose, or should he take the plea bargain and have a felony on his record for ever? Thanks,Anna
