Legal Question in Criminal Law in Florida
Confidentiality Of Anonamous Tips
Would an anonamous tip (or any number of them) be enough for the police to search a house and/or car for marajuana?
If not, what would a citizen be able to do, while concealing their identity, to justify a search warant?
Thirdly, what kind of charges would that result in if the suspect was a seventeen year old incomming senior that both used and sold marajuana to their friends that are also under 18 (and how much jail time would that allow for)?

An anonymous tip would not be enough. sale of drugs is a second degree felony punishable by 15 years in prison. A juvenile may get less.
