live in Ontario, Canada. The cops pulled me over and seized 6 grams of marijuana from us. I had admitted to one cop that the pot was mine but about a minute later he drove away on an emergency call, leaving us with the constable. the constable just charged my friend with possession of a controlled substance because he was the one driving, and i assume he thought it was his pot. Their family wants me to go to court with them in a couple weeks to testify that it wasn't my friends pot but actually mine. Can I be charged with possession of a controlled substance after my friend has already fought the charge and so much time has passed

HERE'S THE SNAG: I told one of the two officers that the pot was mine and I did it right in front of the police car with my 2 buddies there as witnesses... the other cop is the one who ticketed my friend... can they still ticket me even though i admitted it was mine at the time and recieved no ticket.

  1. No,it's probably too late to do anything about it now.The arresting officer is the only one that can change the charge.


  2. 6 grams is personal use, not a jail sentence, just a fine. Let buddy  take the fine, you repay him.

    Keep quiet.

  3. .   This isn't a legal question.  Will your friend understand if you refuse to testify at all.  Just take your right to remain silent and shut up.  At least one of you gets off.
