Re: Possession of Somebody Else's Prescription, Wrong Drug Charged
gblvd, be truthful, were you under the influence the night the police arrested you when you were sitting in the car waiting for your boyfriend ?
Are you or you boyfriend known to the police to use/sell drugs ether in the apartment complex area or elsewhere?
Do you have a misdemeanor charge of possession?
What did you say to the police and did you sign a statement?
Answering these questions truthfully can help us understand what the arresting officer was thinking and might be able to steer you in the right direction.

1. Not under the influence of anything. Don't know where that came from.
2. Not known to sell drugs, never had any charges against me ever before.
3. They charged me with 2 felonies.

I was just asking about being under the influence, Usually when a cop stops someone and that person has a prescription medication that they don't have a script for on them and they are also under the influence they have a probable cause to lock them up.
In your case you weren't under the influence so I think you have a very good chance of getting the charges dropped if everything you say is accurate and your not twisting anything around. However your not going to get this done alone, you will need a lawyer to argue your case.

Thanks. I figured I may need a lawyer. They still haven't officially charged me. I do have an arraignment set

In post #14 you state:
"....I think it's b/c I am young (19) and the cops targeted me. I've been with my b/f for over 5 years and he isn't just anybody. I honestly didn't think I was breaking the law, that's the last thing I want to do. I'm only 19 and I don't want a felony for the rest of my life. I'm in college and I can't afford to lose my student loans....."
Yet you start this thread in January:

Re: Possession of Somebody Else's Prescription, Wrong Drug Charged
Maybe the OP is blowing smoke, I'm wondering though, according to the statute quoted, what does "deliver" mean? I've in the past picked up Rx's for my grandmother, before she died, for AB's & Pain meds (percocet related to a hip Fx), she NEVER drove in her life and was widowed the last 15 years of her life, I did a lot for her(it was my pleasure of course) but IF I had been stopped on the way back to her house, I could've been charged with a felony drug poss? sheesh...some things just don't seem right, it freaking common sense :wallbang: and to widen that out, in the past, some pharmacies have had home deliveries, so the guy delivering SOMEONE else's control substance could be charged also, if the cop arrested him?

Wellllllllll, those pesky "panic attacks" at the age of 9 can be a real messy thang.;)

I think the misuderstanding is b/c I used my mom's account. I should've gotten my own b/c everybody keeps bringing up past threads that were my moms. I didn't know that would occur. I wish everybody would just look at this thread and give me advice on it solely. I appreciate the advice I've gotten so far and please just read this thread b/c it pertains to me.

I know it's insane. I recently found out that you're breaking the law if you put your pills in those Mon, Tues, Wed containers. It must be in a labled container. Everybody and their gradmother does that. My mom worked at an Animal Hospital and clients bring their pet's medications in those containers including pain meds and anxiety meds. (they are breaking the law!):wallbang:
Re: Possession of Somebody Else's Prescription, Wrong Drug Charged
Just an update, I went to court the other day and the state continued the case. They're not sure if they want to press charges or not.
