My question involves criminal law for the state of: New Jersey
I can not afford a lawyer, i was charged with Possession under 50 grams of marijuana, Paraphernalia, and Intent To Distribute Marijuana. I was in a car of 5 people, everyone was gonna get charges but i got out of the car and told him it was my ounce, i had bags and the ounce what should i do to get minimal charges, this is my first offense and i am only 16.
Edit: When The Officer pulled us over he did not tell us why he just asked the drive to get out and talk to him, when i was handcuffed and placed in the car and was being searched he didnt read me my rights will that help at all? and the officer said that me coming forward and saying it was mine should help me in court.
