Where is your room? Parent's home? College? Private rooming house? If the police didn't have a warrant or exigent circumstances didn't exist, who let them in? What was their purpose/probable cause in entering and/or searching the room? Was the paraphernalia in plain sight once they entered? Lots of questions that an attorney would ask if you consulted one.

Not telling you to plead either way, but there sure are a lot of loose ends regarding how it all went down. You might want to ask a lawyer about all this.
This was in my college dorm, the paraphernalia was hidden, but they had probable cause because my roommate admitted he had alcohol in the room. This is my first run in with the law, so I figured I could maybe get a lesser punishment, like community service or something. I am in McClennan county. My roommate was taken to jail because he had weed, but the cops told him I didn't have enough paraphernalia or whatever to be taken to jail. Thank you for the help guys.
