What is the name of your state? Virginia
Hello guys, I'm 18 years old and i'm a senior a falls church high school.
A couple weeks back, I was involved in the prank, but technically I didn't vandalize school property.
Now to let you guys know, when me and my peers got caught, I told my side of the story truthfully.
Heres what I actually did...
The prank involve bottles being mix with liquid gas and aluminum to create a loud bang, or you can say an explosion. No it dosen't cause damage, but it is very loud and people might perceive as a terrorist act or some kind of bomb.
My side of the story: Before the prank started, I lit one of the bottles out of curiousity to see its effect. The next day, the mastermind of the whole thing asked me if i want to do it or not, I told him possibility no because of the consquences that might uprise after the whole event. The day following, me and a couple of people met up before school, I clearly told them I'm not going to be involved in it. I went to school and everything went perfectly until the explosion actually happen. There was a bottle filled with aluminum but no gas in my locker. I later found out that my friend put the bottle in my locker as a backup in case the explosion didn't work. My friend confess to the police about the locker incident.
Result:
No school suspension or explusion.
Possible felony charge, due to my knowledge of the prank and litting one them off as a demonstration on church grounds.
Now, the only things that I think I'm charged with and what the police officer told me was that I actually lit one of them on a field near CHURCH, disposing the bottle that was found in my locker into the sewer.
The police officer mention that everyone who was involved in the prank will only be charge with one or two charges.
Now, I haven't went to the magastrator's office because my police officer had to go the hospital, so i have to wait 1-2 weeks.
Question: What do you think I'll be charge with? If so, do you think Im going to get a plea bargain, lesser charge, like probation?
Another question, just to be safe ( all of the people that were part of it are hiring lawyers as I speak), should I hire a lawyer?
All replies are open, I really want have a feel on what I'm going into.
Thanks alot
