Ok, since when does a cop have the right to search your home because of something they found in your CAR on the street not even at your house!?! Thats absolutely ridiculous! Should have said nothing. Cultivation of mushrooms is what is going to get you bad. They had NO right to search your place of residence UNTIL you took them there and let them in.
If a cop tells you they have reason to search your home tell them "theres the door, kick it in" If they have reasonable doubt they will kick that fucking door in. If they do not, they will try their hardest to convince you to say "Im not hiding anything" or "yeah i have some stuff, its here here and here and oh here is the key go on in" They are still gonna charge you with whatever they find.

Very good point.
I should of also mentioned that these cops were specialized in the "narcotics division" as the newer cop who drove me home told me. So I'm guessing they know their stuff....That could have been it. They saw the fresh bud in the car, I was alone in the car, so they made the assumption that I was growing. Seems like good logic to me. I should of saw it before. But seriously, I rarely see cops at raves, but I forget that I usually see them at OUTDOOR raves, which is where the problem is. I didn't learn from last year.....too forgetful for my own good.
And I didn't really take them there, I was in the cop car and they drove me there. If I had the option to just go straight to jail, and not by my place, I would have took that route. But at the time, it looked it was going to happen anyway, so in my mind, why not just get it over with and end the lies.
If they would have gave me a consent form to sign, giving them permission to search my place, theres no way in hell I would sign that. No way. But there was never a form, nothing officially. Just questions then answers. And if they kicked the door in, I would have to pay for that, since I don't own the place, I rent it.

Haven't done that yet, but I just bought one of those pre-paid cell phones to make calls that I need to make, just to the Police Dept about my cell phone and to the tow service (not sure which one) about my vehicle.
Next, I'm going to send a message to both MAPP and NORML real soon.....should I just send my OP, with some edits?

That is YOU giving THEM permission to search. Just telling them "yeah its there" Is GRANTING permission to search. Thats why everyone says dont talk. You would have just been facing the possession of the lsd,nug,and the license plate light thing. But now you have much more serious charges awaiting you.

You mean when I tell NORML and MAPP about what happened or tell the Police that I contacted MAPP/NORML?
The latter sounds no so good.
I'm actually working on the editing right now....
Might have to ask you guys to peer-review it, to make sure it sounds alright....I'll censor my name and location to protect my identity.
Hopefully those organizations can help.

Hey dude, I guess I'm a bit late since this has been posted, but I'm sure everything will work out okay, its gonna be a rough road, but I've had friends whom have been busted with worse, and I'm sure that you'll be fine. Two things to remember, its your first offense, you'll definatly get parole and this will blemish your record, but you'll survive. My suggestion, get your lawyer, play it straight, be good for a year. You'll be back in no time.

Damn trueherb, I'm really sorry to hear about that. That's the worst thing that could happen. The same shit could happen to me. I use to carry photos around in my iphone with me, just because it synced all my photos in iphoto. It got stolen but it had a password and of course when you steal an iphone you don't give a shit what's on it, you just want to wipe it and use it. So I got kind of lucky, but that experience taught me exactly that, never carry around photos. That's fucked up shit trueherb I'm so sorry.

Why not use a pay phone for communicating with the police, the impound etc, rather than that lovely new anonymous (possibly) prepaid cell phone you have?

this story hurt to read but at least you learned a lesson. follow everyone's advice and get a lawyer asap.
and i tend to be extra cautious, but i don't see how keeping your growery account around is going to help. i wouldn't want to risk them finding it. i know on shroomery they don't delete accounts so if they won't do it here then just delete all your pics/logs.
guess it doesn't matter if they have pics already though.
good luck!

If that is to THC then you are getting a -5 right now.
If it wasn't I'll change my mind but that is just rude

As people have said none of us have law degrees, Now I don't know what state your in or your local laws but cops have to have probable cause to search your car. they have to prove there is a reason why its likely you have drugs in your car, like smelling marijuana, roaches in the ash tray..etc.. now LYING to the cops is NOT a reason to search your car, drug related bumper stickers are not a reason to search your car. At best they could give you a ticket for the burnt out license light, Do like everybody is telling you and get a lawyer, you might have to suck it up and tell your family or relatives or if you have to take out a loan. anything to get some money for a lawyer, because a public defender is going to seriously not give a shit what happens to you. Alright man good luck keep us posted.
