An underage consumption would be followed up by a detailed police report, and if the child was under the age of 18 then she/he would be escorted to the police station if deemed intoxicated and a parent would be contacted. I'm not sure how old your daughter is, but if she was truly not intoxicated then the police report will have to show this. Cops typically do not lie just to get arrests. If the daughter was asleep in her own room, and the cops walked in or forced their way in without being let in, then she simply can have it thrown out due to illegal entry. However, if the policeman observed alcohol on her breath and there is no legitimate reason to think otherwise she will not be getting out of it..
