If someone gets busted with some Marijuana, lets say an ounce, What is the best way to handle the situation, in order to have the best chance at a lenient sentence? I have always read that in order to protect your rights you should not consent to a search and not say anything without a lawyer present. However, I started thinking and wondered if that would pi$$ the cop off and give them more reason to go after you? I mean, just watch cops, how many of those people dont say anything to the police officers? And when those dont say anything, the cop usually gives him a hard time for it, telling him that he wont be in as much trouble if he just tells the truth. In your eyes (and possibly the judge's), what really is the best way to handle the situation of being caught with an ounce of Marijuana to have the best chance at a lenient sentence?
