Mel's super-duper epic Yellowstone experience **UPDATE**
#238145 - 06/09/09 10:31 PM (15 years, 5 months ago) |

In exactly a week i head back to Wyoming for my court date. Charges are: possession of an illegal substance (hash) possession of stolen property (credit card)
Well the hash i'm not worried about, but the credit card i could get some serious charges for if found guilty of fraud. I had no intentions of using the card at all, just found it on the ground and happened to pocket it and forget about it for a few months. Once i got stopped by the Yellowstone rangers they asked me about it and i knew i was gonna get fucked by the "man."
Any ideas on how long my sentencing would be? I have never used it, but i'm sure they wouldn't believe a street kid like myself. Fuck... it's all starting to hit me now.

I'm sure it depends on your age and how you plead.
Maybe Google the laws and charges in Wyoming.

Wyoming has 99 plants as a misdemeanor so I don't they care aobut the hash.. How much hash was it?
The stolen credit card, just explain you picked it up, put it in your wallet, and forgot about it. You're innocent if you never used it and hope it wasn't used before you found it. Of course talk to a lawyer also.

yeah, it should be pretty easy to prove you didn't take/use it. depending on when it was canceled or reported stolen you might even be able to show you weren't in the same state then. Also you could try telling them you were on the road for several months and i would imagine strapped for cash so if it was gonna have charges and shit all over it they would probably of already been there. same thing actually happened to me with a family members credit card i had borrowed and got pulled over with.

dude you could always just not show up
that's what like 80% of people do when they catch misdemeanors in different states. as long as you never go back and get your information run you're fine.
but meeting up with jon and joel in mexico would be fun too

See, that term pedo gets thrown around a lot.
Is a 16 year old guy having sex w/a 16 year old girl a pedophile?
If not, then how is a 30 year old considered a pedophile for doing the same thing?
I think y'all need to look up the definition for pedophile.

Im pretty sure they have to prove that you used the card, Get a good laywer and talk his ears off. Since you dont live there I bet they just fine ur ass dry.
