Legal Question in Criminal Law in Georgia

I got pulled over with marijuana in the car. the officer said he saw me leave the spot and knows I have it so if I give it to him i wont go to jail. so I gave it to him, he kept my license and told me to get in my car and follow him to the precint. once there, he asked me all my personal information and had me sign the card he was writing all my info on. so then he proceeds to tell me that instead of going to jail, I'm gonna work it off with them. meaning they want me to set this guy up, that i need to call the next day at 2 pm and they will tell me what to do from there. since they let me go back home, if i decide to NOT cooperate with them, what actions can they legally take against me?

Obviously you know at this point you need a lawyer, and you should have called him, instead of posting details on the internet where the police can read this post. Call Law Guru ASAP and try to get this post deleted, and stop posting this online, and call your lawyer today!

They can lock you up for marijuana possession. Then you make bond, retain an attorney and fight the case in court. See website for info on retaining the right attorney:
