More details to this question:
I was pulled over for driving without an I.D., and then the cop found an empty baggie in my pocket while I was standing outside my car. After I arrived at the jail I went in restroom to be searched. When I walked out the officer said I was going to be charged with taking a controlled substance in a correctional facility. I did not have any kind of drugs on me when I was pulled over. He also lied about me taking that bag in with me. He reached in my pocket and got it when I was standing on the street. He has recently been fired from the P.D. I did not have any drugs on me when I was pulled over. What can I do?

This is a serious charge and you must hire a lawyer. There may be video footage of the booking that may help you but it needs to be preserved.

The case needs to be tried to a judge or jury. You should hire an attorney as you have a good case.
