You are free to write a letter or even call the prosecutor. The information that you have is exactly the kind of information that the prosecutor would want in order to make an offer on the case, or to offer in the punishment phase if there is a trial.

The facts as I understand them are as follows: Your wife was driving a van she borrowed from an acquaintance. You were a passenger in the vehicle. The police stopped the vehicle as a result of an inoperable tag light (which was probable cause to make the stop). You state that you were "pulled" from the van. The van was searched and marijuana was located. The facts you provided do not disclose (1) whether your wife consented to a search of the vehicle; or(2) where the marijuana was found. If the vehicle was searched without a warrant or consent to search, or a valid warrant exception, then a "motion to suppress" would be the appropriate course of action. You also indicated that you are on probation for 10 years. I am assuming that your probation has been or may be revoked as a result of the arrest for marijuana possession, although you were not very clear in your factual details. If you do notcurrently have an attorney, you should retain the services of an attorney right away.
