My question involves criminal law for the state of: New Jersey
Hello, today a friend and I were arrested and the officer found a marijuana pipe and .25 grams of marijuana. They belonged to my friend but since he has a criminal record, I agreed to take ownership as long as he pays all of the fines. It will be my first offense. I was taken to the police station and my prints and picture were taken. The charges against me are possession of paraphernalia and possession of under 50 grams of marijuana. I am starting to regret doing this and worried my friend will not be able to pay the fines and I end up getting screwed. Is there anyway I can still get out of this or is it to late. Thanks
