I am a minor who was recently arrested for possession of marijuana and possession of paraphernalia without being read my rights, what now?
Before I explain the situation I would like to make it clear that I know my actions were illegal, and immoral. I have learned my lesson, and now I am left with the task of making this mistake impact my professional future as little as possible. I would appreciate if any advice given was followed by sources or credentials. I am a minor who was recently arrested for the possession of marijuana, and the possession of paraphernalia. I was a passenger in a car with two of my friends (both adults) when we were stopped for speeding. We had just finished smoking a small amount of marijuana and were on our way to the mall. I am quite confident that the car had no scent of marijuana as we had aired it out and used deodorant spray. The driver was polite and compliant, and provided the officers with his license, registration, and proof of insurance. None of the occupants of the car had been arrested before, nor did we have outstanding charges/warrants. The driver was asked to step out of the car to sign his ticket. On his way back to the car an officer asked if he consented to a search, to which he replied no. We were all asked to step out of the car, subsequently exposing a grinder under my leg. At this point the officers started lambasting the three of us with questions such as "whose is this?", "is there anything else in the car?", "when did you smoke up?". I choose not to speak and one of my friends (whom the grinder belonged to) admitted the grinder was his, and the other was silent...
