My question involves criminal law for the state of: virginia
I get pulled over for having one of my front lights out. The officer ask to see my license and registration. As I'm reaching to get it he sees a little sandwitch bag and ask to see it, I give to him, he looks at it and ask do I have marijuana on me. I say yes, I had 1.5 grams of weed. He ask me to step out the car he frisks me and ask me to wait. He charges me with possesion of marijuana. He did not handcuff me or arrest me. And he gave me my summons and let me drive home. I am 22 years old and I have never had any criminal charges against. I am graduating college in may and I don't want this to show up on my record in fear of not being able to get employment post college. Everybodys been saying that I should get a lawyer. What can been to fix this?
