    Default Minors Accused of Using Marijuana at School

    My question involves juvenile law in the State of: Georgia

    Ok, so my friend was caught with marijuana at school while i was with him. I went into the woods to piss on a tree and he came with me (to wait on me so we could walk to lunch). When we came back to lunch a teacher asked me to come with him to the school officer who was in the cafeteria. So when we got into the cafeteria i turned around and left, ran (like sprinted) to the bathroom and put my lighter in the trash.

    Ok so the deal is that we HAVE smoked at school before, but it was home rolled CIGARETTES, not weed. They are going to see me on camera smoking that with him and assume its weed, because he told them we have smoked weed before. Currently i have denied that i smoked anything with him, but i have smoked rollies with him before.

    So basically i havent admitted to smoking weed with my friend (which i never did) and didnt have anything in my possession. But he did have marijuana on him and was caught with it.
    They are going to see me on camera running, going into to the bathroom and possibly find my lighter in the trash. They will also possibly see me smoking a cigarette with him and probably assume its weed.

    So my question is, what kind of trouble can i get into for this? I havent admitted to anything, what they have on me is that my friend had weed and i was with him, he claims he was going to smoke it with me , they have me on camera running. I wasnt running FROM anyone though. Also i had nothing in my possession.

    Forgive me if this is in the wrong place

    You are free to tell the school that your friend is lying and that you've only smoked cigarettes with him. I make no promise that they will believe you.

    Given that you have already lied, if they have evidence that you were smoking your claim that it was only a cigarette isn't likely to convince anybody.

    Given your actions, your friend's story, and your lies, yes, that's probably what they will conclude.

    You will have to see whether or not the matter is referred to juvenile court, and if so what charge is made. As for the school, obviously, they can impose punishments, which will vary depending on school policies, what they can prove, and your prior record of misconduct.

    Yes, you were. What you mean to say, apparently, is that nobody ran after you when you ran away from the teacher and school officer.

    Do you have any idea what they could charge me with? Would this case hold up in court considering I wasnt in possession of anything?

    Also, assuming they find it, they have no proof the lighter in the trash is mine, correct? There are no cameras in the bathroom.

    And let's not forget that smoking a cigarette and smoking weed are done differently, if you do it right, and that should be obvious on camera.
