    Default Providing Alcohol to a Minor in Massachusetts

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Massachusetts

    So last night my roomate and I got charged with providing alcohol to minors. I live in a 4 person suite and all of us were drunk last night. My roomate and I are both over 21 and our suite mates are under 21. We weren't arrested just told something would be mailed to us telling us our court date. The thing that ticks me off is yea my roomate and I were drinking, but we never provided for our suite mates, the charge was completely based on assumption. So I was wondering what could happen from this and should I get a lawyer?

    I read the police report also and no where did it say anything about the officer asking the minor whether or not he had been drinking and he never said anything about it in the report. He was also not given a breathalyzer test or sobriety test. So I'm hoping this is a plus on our end. The minor was also not charged for possession of alcohol

    I received my court summons which is in about 2 weeks. Evidently we first go in front of a magistrate and explain our case then they decide whether or not we would go in front a judge. Could use some help if possible please. What should I end up doing and should I decide to get a lawyer or not.
