Hey all. the other day i was out at the mall, and cops showed up to my house. they pressured my brother to let them inside to look because they had a report that i was growing pot. my sister let them inside to look becasue she got pressured into letting them in. they didnt even have a warrent and she let them in it was my plant, and she told in hesitation when they found it. just wondering what kind of charge am i looking at? it was just one plant, i have no prior arrests or anything, and the pot was for personal use only, as im sure is pretty clear seeing as it was just one plant.

anyways, any idea what kind of charge will be held against me?
thanks guys

was the owner of the home there if some randome person said come on in than they did not have a warrent and they did not have the owners permission i would guess that this would be a prying point if they do lock you up... illegal entry brotha

might i also add, things were going absolutely great untill the other day my sister had the cable guy over. i wasnt aware that he was coming so i wasnt at home and didnt think anything of covering up the plant (it was just insdide a rubermaid container with another oone upside down on top. things have gone so smoothly for the last 6 months, it seems just WAY too much of a coincidence that the cable guy comes and runs new cables right by the grow box, and the cops are at the door two days later to bust me for my one pot plant in the most ghetto setup ever :P

Okay, what province are you in?
This will have significant bearing on your defense. (No, I'm not a lawyer, just a geek.)

Ontario has precedence of the courts saying the pot laws are not enforceable, so since you're not a big grow op, it's not worth it for them if you challenge it.

Letting the cops in was a bad move. They didn't have a warrant to enter, and unless the plant was in sight of the door or another law was being broken in plain sight, they did not have a valid reason to enter.

*When police show up at your door, be cordial and step outside to talk to them.*

I've been told separately by both a cop and a corrections officer that it's bad news to let them into your house, because there are lots of stupid laws on the books that can have you technically breaking the law, so once they're in and see something that meets the criteria, it's like inviting in vampires. You're stuck with guests that suck.

Also, you say it happened the other day, right? And they took the plant?
Nobody stayed around to talk to you? There's no paper trail?

You may have just contributed to Officer's Bob's stash.

just a note never open the door for police, talk THROUGH the screen if not yell through the door or window. and make sure all entrys are locked.. "*When police show up at your door, be cordial and step outside to talk to them.*" nice thought, but they will not have the same curtosy.. so just a heads up NEVER OPEN DOOR FOR police

sounds like your sisters smoke your stash and came up with a cover story ask for the police report number

morgentaler, i am from alberta. it was also the rcmp that took it, as i am located in a small town. yeah i totaly knew my rights and that she never shoulda let the cops in, but they threatened to charge my sister because she was the homeowner and call her boss, etc. so she gave up in fear "hoping" they would take it and it be done.

so basically when i got back out there, i went down to talk to the officer. and he was reading me a page that said if i was convicted, it was a felony (not sure what its called here tho).

unfortunately i knew what he was gonna say. he wants me to flip and rat someon out for an OUNCE or more and then "everything will go away". like this was the reason why i grew my own pot anyways, because i dont really have connections, and dont like going out to buy from a dealer. he said he can delay the charges for 6 months, if im willing to co-operate. but what im wondering, is with NO priror record at all, if i just go to court over this, what kind of charge am i looking at? im not a criminal, and ive never been charged with anything before. like.... it was one plant. like fuckk
