Recently, I defended someone accused of possession of
marijuana. Before he hired me, he had been planning to enter a plea of guilty
to the charge just to “get it over with”. Boy was he glad he changed his mind!
What he didn’t know was that the police had no admissible
evidence to prove his crime. The police report indicated they found marijuana
in a car he was sitting in. The police never entered the alleged marijuana into
evidence, and never sent it to a lab to be tested to prove it was marijuana.
No evidence means no crime.
DO NOT JUST PLEA to be done with a case. The burden to prove
that a crime occurred and that you are guilty of said crime is on the State,
not you. Speak to an experienced criminal defense attorney before you make what could be a life changing decision…
just to get it over with.
