Do you think the charges can be dropped for possession of dangerous drug if they were someone else's prescription and I was unaware of them?

Cynthia Russell Henley
Answered by attorney Cynthia Russell Henley (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Cynthia Henley
If the facts are as you say, the State will have an almost impossible time proving that you intentionally / knowingly possessed those drugs. Hire a lawyer to put together a packet of proof for the grand jury (or prosecutor) with the proof of ownership of the vehicle, proof of the prescription, statement of witnesses, etc. I'm betting this case will be dismissed if not no-billed.

Is it legal for the police to conduct a vehicle search?

Jared Clayton Austin
Answered by attorney Jared Clayton Austin (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Austin Legal Services, PLC
Without permission the police will need probable cause. Just because they didn't cite you any doesn't mean they didn't have any, it just means that they didn't tell you what it was. Eventually they will have to in order to make any charge hold up in court. If any incriminating evidence was recovered as a result of the search, it could be open to challenge via a suppression motion. Have an experienced criminal attorney review the police report in order to give you the best options on how to proceed.

Can a police officer interrogate a minor and search the home without the parent's presence?

Cynthia Russell Henley
Answered by attorney Cynthia Russell Henley (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Cynthia Henley
The cop could interrogate / interview the children. Even if a parent is home and won't allow it, the cops can go to the school to conduct and interview and the parent does not have to be notified. As far as the search of the premises, if the child was there alone then the child had apparent authority to allow a search upon request.
