You need to talk to an attorney, I can't understand the stream of gibberish you have posted here. Try not to smoke any pot before the interview.

Why did you not take probation? You and your PD were negotiating a plea deal that drops charges in exchange for probation on others. If you tanked the plea deal they will try you on all charges.

Do you really want to take to trial? What if the unauthorized search turns out to be legal and they can admit the evidence. You then have all the charges and the jury could find you guilty.

Your PD probably had a good deal going...don't be so arrogant that you think you will beat the charges. Your time to challenge the search was when the cops wanted to search...

Both sides deal with jury selection...
