I just watched my best friend get arrested.
I've never posted on this board before but I could use some law related advice.
Just an hour ago my friend and I got pulled over and searched, the cops found his stash of weed. They arrested him while I just sat there scared. He took full responsibility since it was his weed, I'm home safe and sound while he's spending his night in a jail cell. I feel guilty, should I take partial responsibility? It wasn't my weed or my car but I smoke with him all the time.
I'm looking for legal advice, we live in Texas and I just spent my last hour researching marijuana laws in this state but to no avail. It's just showing me what amount leads to what charge, the problem is that I don't know the amount. He kept it in a small jar and we're both poor college students so I doubt he had much. What is he in for and what should I do, /adv/?

He's fucked now. what you should have done is both of you adamantely say it's not yours u drove a friend home last night or something like that.
Your friend is just going to have to take a worse plea deal because he admitted it was his.

If you don't know how much he had, how are we supposed to help you? He needs a lawyer who can talk to him and find out what he's being charged with. Tell him to get a lawyer.

>should 2 people go to jail instead of one?
No. Never. If someone covers for you, you fucking ROLL WITH IT WITHOUT QUESTION. Otherwise, you're making him out to be a liar to the cops, the last thing he will want if he's going to court.
Suck up the guilt, faggot. He covered for you and now you're a free man and he's got the charges. If you want to help him out, put some money on his books for commissary regularly.
I find it amusing how in "Commie" states, like California, I can go to a pot shop and buy that shit off a shelf, as if it were booze or some commodity. But over in the "free" and "good" Red states, you get sent to jail for posessing the shit.
I don't like weed. It's not for me. I will say, you're living in the wrong state if you want to be a pothead.

Texas is a commie as fuck in that 1 way, but thats only the federal governments fault.
