    Question Caught Drinking with a Fake I.D.

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Washington.
    I was at a sky lounge and got a glass of wine from the bar. After serving me one glass (which I had a sip from) the bartender asked for my ID and being only 18 I handed him a fake one. He nones and handed it back to me. When I went for a second class he said there's been a "small discrepancy" with my ID and he wasn't able to serve me again. As I walked out it the lounge I was stopped by airport security. The same female officer was there who had seen me previously intoxication at another restaurant on the airport and had taken away that piece of Fake ID. My ID this time was not a real person otherwise I would've gotten charged for impersonation. After discussing with the
    Manager of the sky club officer Robertson informed me that they would be pressing charges, which I would receive in the mail. My question now is what am I being charged with? And what are the punishments for these offenses? I imagine it would be using false identification to obtain alcohol, and minor in possession?

    How are we supposed to know? One thing you can count on is not receiving leniency the second time around.

    RCW 66.20.200 or 66.44.328 for the false ID.
    RCW 66.44.290 for obtaining alcohol
    RCW 66.44.310 for being in the lounge under age.

    It's really not the lounge manager who makes the call. Society is harmed by your criminal behavior, the state (the police, the prosecutor) are the ones who bring the charges.

    Oh, now you're concerned? Didn't occur to you to think about the consequences before hand?

    Here's a list of the potential charges and penalties:

    You could be charged with several.

    At 18 you're an adult so it won't disappear like a juvenile record. You'll have a criminal record following you around that will have negative effects on your life in a variety of ways.
