Your chances are better if you sit tell a lawyer all of the facts. It is always possible to get out of many crimes with a dismissal if you have no prior record. Your case sounds like you may have some defensible issues that may help in getting such a result. Do not talk to the police unless a lawyer hears the whole story and advises you whether or not to do so.
