QUESTION
What do I need to do if an illegal substance has been planted on me?
Asked on Jan 20th, 2012 on Criminal Law - Texas
More details to this question:
There was a random room inspection in my dormitory and the officer found an illegal substance in my closet that was not mine. So, while I was being finger printed I asked another officer "What is going to happen after I pass my drug test and they find my prints are not on what was found?" He said that it will not change the fact it was in my closet. I was also not able to see what was found and was not told what I was being charged with until I was being questioned.

The State must prove that you intentionally and knowingly possessed the drug. It will be a tough case.

A lawyer. The DA will not listen to your story. Only a good attorney can convince the DA of the truth. So, hire the best lawyer you can afford.
