My question involves criminal law for the state of: Mississippi
I was recently exiting a domestic violence and as I was leaving, police showed up. I was outside, the people fighting were inside. I honestly don't know if they saw me before or after I was outside of the screen door, if that even matters. They stopped me and after they settled the dispute they searched me. I am now facing a possession charge of marijuana. I am a minor and am wondering if they had the right to search me. If you need any more info just ask. Thanks for any help.
