    Minor Charged With Felony Drug Possession at School
    HI,
    My 14 yr old daughter has been arrested for a class 3 felony drug possesion charge,while at school her locker was searched and they found 2-5mg vicoden and 3-10mg valium,in her purse,when questioned by the school and police officer she admited to them being hers,she told them she took them from her grandparents to sell to help her father pay the bills,I am going through a divorce and money is tight,she was expelled from school for the remainder of the year,my daughter has never been in any trouble before,I think I can home school her to get her creditsbut the felony is my main concern,I do not want her to have that hanging over her head,she does not use drugs nor drink,she has been a model child up to this point,what am I looking at in the future over this and should I hire an attorny at this point.Thanks for any help in this matter

    Unfortunately I don't know anything about law...I'm on here just asking a question as well, but I am sorry that you are involved in such a mess and I truly hope that it all works out in your favor.

    Best of luck to you and your daughter.

    Most definately, you should hire an attorney! In addition to being expelled, were there criminal charges filed?

    Given your apparent financial situation, check to see if she would qualify for a court-appointed lawyer.
