Holy shit man. Glad those two made it through, was a bit worried for you.

I'm not too familiar with Georgia state law but my state offers a diversion program for adults that gets first time MM possession charges stricken from their record. I'd look into it if I were you. Also, if actually charged, my states law carries a 6 month drivers license suspension along with a maximum fine of (I think) 150 dollars. It's a non-jailable offense. My state may be more lax than yours, so I'd look into it.

I'll try to find some more info regarding Georgia state laws and edit this post when I have the time.

Edit: Georgia does offer a diversion program for first time offenders. It would involve probation and drug screening, but the charge would be stricken from your record. If you do not end up with diversion, the max penalty is a 1 year sentence in jail along with a maximum 1000$ fine. I'd lawyer up and try and get diversion.

Didn't you say it was just loose weed shoved in a box? Probably got sniffed out by a K9 or machine, or the mail carrier got stunk out of his truck and went to the cops.

Get an attorney. It might cost a little more up front, but the possibility of pleading a drug possession charge down to disorderly conduct is very real and can save you a huge amount of hassle in the future. My state has an automatic driver's license suspension for any drug charge, for example.

Good luck to you!!

I have been through the charge. Take the diversion. Usually involves 1 drug test and a $500 fee.
