Hi,
My boyfriend and I live in Utah and we got pulled over for having an expired registration (I know that was really stupid) and the cop seperated us and took me in his car with him. He started asking me if I had smoked pot and read me my rights, but basically said that if I didn't tell him anything it was going to be worse. Anyway, he ended up searching the car on the basis that it smelled like pot but didn't find anything. He made us give him a "voluntary" pee test which came out positive for both of us and charged us with internal posession. We both got a ticket for $555 but when we went in to talk to the judge, he said that there is a possibility that we could be charged with the maximum sentence of 6 months in jail, $1800 in fines, and having our licences revoked for 1 year. I'm pretty sure he said that we would have our licences revoked no matter what. He said we might be able to plea bargain with the prosecutor and told us all our rights and everything. This was our first offense. What should we do?
