Brother problems. My brother got busted by the police for the first time approximately 4 weeks ago. He called from the hospital telling us he had to get a blood test to see if he was high or under the influence. We just got the papers today that he should find a lawyer, he is in for three charges, under the influence, drug paraphernalia and window screening (which is the tinting on the person's car he was driving, I don't know what that is but that was one of his charges). Now, since all of this happened and we got all the papers, I believe my brother is in the most trouble because he wasn't even driving his car, he was driving his friends who was in the back seat of the vehicle when they were pulled over. They searched the car and searched each person, they took them in handcuffs, I can't even imagine seeing that. Anyways, now I'm rambling, my point is, what's in store for my brother? For court and everything? Thanks. He is 18 and again, this is his first time getting caught.

Your brother needs to lawyer up. Find a criminal defense attourney and talk to him. ]
Depends on the court, Your brother is now legally an adult.
Depending on judge, court etc. He might get lucky and end up on probation with community service as this is his first charge. It's either that or he goes to jail...
Seeing your brother was charge as an adult it will be on his record for 5 years, As now his chances of getting a job are even harder and it certainly doesn't look if he were trying to get a place of his own etc. Looks like he really screwed himself over on this one.. ]
