That certainly sounds like enough to get you arrested. Depending upon what they charged you with, though, there may be issues with them proving it and getting you convicted. Your best bet is to hire an attorney who will do a proper investigation and be ready to do whatever can be done to protect your rights.

If you were to be the recipient of the drugs (you requested and had knowledge that they were to be sent) and they were sent there has been a crime committed. The refusal may evidence withdrawal from the plan and may influence the outcome.
