What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Kentucky.
My boyfriend is charged with possession of meth, 2nd offense; Paraphernalia, 1st offense in another county. Will they have to drop the paraphernalia charge if we prove that it wasn't his? Some of the things they have listed weren't even present so I know they can't produce them as evidence. He was deathly ill when they found on him and was taken to the local ER for treatment but was subsequently charged with possession (pretty pathetic, you're dying and they just want to slap a charge on you). He was charged with possession in 2002 nut was never convicted, so it would be his first offense anyway, not second. Is there a way to have the possession charge dropped? I know that when a person is under the influence of drugs or alcohol, in detox or in a mental facility legally they aren't supposed to be able to use any kind of statements given (confessions of otherwise) because you are considered to be 'not of sound mind.' I have heard that the substance was tested and found to be mostly poison (other than normal poisons found in meth) and it was under 0.5g but I'm not familliar with possession laws. How do you find loopholes? Do I need to find a library that has law books and just start digging through books? When he was served with the warrant he was detained in the county we live in on other charges but was on home incarceration as per his parole officer. If he's on HI, he is not a flight risk but the combined bonds from both counties is $51,000 cash. Isn't that a littlw exhorbitant? Could we file a Writ of Habeas Corpus motion for excessive bail?
