Hey everyone, I would appreciate some input on what I am going through currently.
I live in Milton, Ontario currently.
Last month, I was charged with possession of marijuana under 30 grams. This was in Mississauga. Me and two of my friends were smoking weed in my car by a Hasty Market. We know the owner of the hasty market very well and we've been toking up there for many years. We've been caught there before, one time. The cops were incredibly cool and they were joking around and they took the weed and just left and said, "smoke somewhere else next time". This laid back event perhaps encouraged me to not move from that spot even though I should have. Unfortunately, the next time we got caught, it was so much worse.
The cops were assholes. We were extremely polite with them, we gave them everything we had and they still charged us. This is the first time any of us were charged with any crime. I had about 2-3 grams on me and my other friend had about 2 grams. The other person with us had nothing but nonetheless, we all got charged for joint possession. We also had 2 grinders in the car.
Apparently, they came because of a complaint. The person who made the complaint was there and he was constantly bitching, telling the cops to charge us.
To sum it up, about 5 grams, charged as joint possession between three people and paraphernalia as well. None of have any priors. My court date is next week, in Brampton. Do i need a lawyer? Will the judge most likely just drop it since we are first time offenders? Its hard to imagine that I would get a criminal charge for 3 grams of fucking marijuana, this is so stupid. Anyone here that had similar experiences?
Thanks guys.
