Re: wait time

Your facts were a bit unclear on when the police searched your home. However, if this is an on going investigation, then they will not bring it to the state to file chrages until their investigation is complete and they feel confident in what they wish to charge. This could mean a week, 3 weeks, 3 months or longer. You might really consider getting an attorney involved now rather than waiting for the other shoe to drop.
