A couple of months ago I was arrested and sent to jail for being drunk in public and having less than an ounce of marijuana on me. I was sitting in my car in front of 2 of my personal friends houses, smoking marijuana, when the cops pulled up from behind and caught me. I told the officer where the marijuana was as soon as he asked me and gave him consent to search my car for anything else illegal and came up with nothing else. I also told the officer that I was indeed drinking before I arrived at my friends house, but was not drunk at all. As I was sitting on the curb, I was basically talking a lot of crap to the officers which I assume made them upset and therefore the reason why I believe I was taken in. If I had not talked crap, I think I would have been let go with only the marijuana ticket. Also, no blood test or breathalyzer was given to me. I do not, and will not deny the fact that I had smoked and drinked a few beers, but I know that I was not a danger to myself or to anybody else, even if I was let go, I could have just walked up to either of my friends houses. Any advice would be great.
