I live in northern Indiana.A couple drug task force officers came to my door in December of 2005. They said that they had reason to believe I had drugs in my home. Which I did not. They intimidated me into telling them that I did have a pipe. They said I needed to sign a paper for them to come in and search my house. I was scared and let them in. When they didnt find any drugs or the water pipe, they said they already knew I had it so I better find it. My boyfriend was pissed I had let them in. He and I searched for the pipe for at least a half an hour before we found it. Then they left us a card and said if we would "help" them then no charges would be filed. Of course we didnt help them and so a month later they came with warrants for arrest of both of us.
I got a court appointed attorney. He did not. I received a 6 mon suspended sentence and fines. He received one year random drug testing and community service. He was tested every month for ten months and passed. His 11th test he failed and they re prosecuted him for a D felony charge of poss. of para. We could not hire a lawyer.. He has trial in a few days. Is there anything in the law that we can use saying that two people cannot be charged for the same piece of para?
especially since I have already pled guilty for it and was sentenced? and it was the same incident concerning the same piece??? This is the only thing he has ever been arrested for.
