My question involves criminal law for the state of:Michigan
Heres the situation. I was pulled over for speeding ( i am guilty ) and was informed that my employee to my right had a warrant for poss of marijuana. We were promptly removed from the truck and were searched. I had nothing illegal on my person nor did my passenger, but they did find his stash, located in the center lower console, on or near his side. The cop was extremely upset, thinking I had known about the stash and had not told him. Anyway, they ended up charging my employee with the violations pertaining to his warrant only. The cop threatened to charge ME with poss of marijuana and obstruction of justice!!! I am as clean as a preachers sheets, 37 years old, business owner, vet, ccw holder, and my employee is a habitual offender with 6+possession charges. Do I need to get a lawyer? Are they sending the weed to the lab or something? Will these charges surface in a week or two, or is this over? I have not been able to sleep over this. Should I go to the sheriffs office and see if a warrant has been issued and offer to turn myself in? Really Lost here, any help greatly appreciated.
