My question involves criminal law for the state of: Missouri
I received a ticket while riding in a car with some people, my friend knows. My record is clean save for this ticket (court date is the end of this month). The car was pulled over on April 20th under suspicion that the car smelled like weed. The five of us in the car were pulled out and searched and nothign was found on me, but ym fiend had weed and a pipe and another kid int he car had a vial of pills in his pants. Once they finished searching us, they searched the car and found rolling papers shoved under the floor board fo where I was sitting. So they handcuffed me and questioned me and let me off with a ticket. I was ssearched a total of 5 times, 2 before beign handcuffed and 3 times while handcuffed.

Discription of voilation" VMCSL- poss. drug para.
Since this is my frist offense, if I plead guilty what is the possible range I am looking at and what is most likely to occuring?
and my second question is: Isn't anything found hide in the car suppose to be the responisiblity of the driver, unless it is on a person?
