I live in Colorado and was recently arrested in Crawford County, Arkansas. The charges are possession of less than 4 oz (misdemeanor) and possession of paraphernalia (misdemeanor). The "reason" the officer pulled me over was because "I was following the semi in front of me to closely". I personally think that's BS and started pursuing me because I has Colorado License Plates. The officer was on the side of the road just sitting on the shoulder and after I passed him he pulled out and starting following me. He followed for a few miles then acted as to pass me, he then slowed down and got behind me again. Other traffic passed me and the officer and as I went to make a lane change to pass the semi infront of me the lights came on. Once the officer made the stop he separated me and the one other passenger. I was placed in the front seat of the police car where I was interrogated for what seemed to be 15 minutes. He keep asking me for anything illegal and I kept denying. He even asked to search the car and I said yes, I don't care its not my car, I was just the driver. After a while of him interrogating the other passenger he searched the car and eventually found the small amount of marijuana and paraphernalia. I have court coming up and was wondering can I appear over phone? I have a DUI from 6 years ago on my record but no drug charges. I feel that they have me on camera saying its ok to search my car, does this mean that I should just plead guility? Any opinions?
