For a while now I have been selling pills to some of my friends but I have been the "middle man." If my friends ever need pills I normally charge them about $10 or so more because I have been getting them cheap from my big dealers.
Today one of my friends that I have bought pot from a few times asked me for $1,000 worth of pills and I said sure. When we went to my dealers house I went inside to get the pills but I noticed it was kind of sketchy because a lot of people were in their cars outside of my dealers house. I went through with the deal and gave the pills to the guy asking for it and went on my way.
After leaving that location, I was pulled over. The cops searched me, I had nothing. As well as searched the guys I was with, they had nothing. The cop took me in (because I was the guy who went inside and physically got the pills) and questioned me. He asked me about the dealer and all the pills and whatnot and suggested that I snitch on other dealers I know of.......this is where the big question lies so pay attention...... they then said that I had until next wednesday(it is now thursday) to come and snitch to them or else they would send me to jail. When I asked how they could send me to jail they said "they know who I am" and they "knew I was a middle man" and that they "had enough to put me away for 3 years."
Now, is it really true that they can put me into jail because they've "seen" or "heard" my name as a middle man? THey have no proof/evidence and when I was pulled over I had no drugs on me.

By your own admission: "If my friends ever need pills I normally charge them about $10 or so more..." This sir/madam is the definition of distribution. You acquired and redistributed.
To the cops you are a small fish in a big pond. Putting you in jail does them really no good. Someone will take your place before the cell door closes on you. What they want is someone to lead them to a bigger fish. You are now that person.
Do not negotiate with the cops without talking to a lawyer first. Do what the lawyer tells you. Most likely the lawyer will want things in writing and will want some type of protection for you in return for your cooperation. This is for your own protection.

You are in possession of selling drugs, You are dealing drugs, You are buying drugs. They want you to rat out the other dealers because you are involved with them, Sounds to me they are looking to do a drug bust. Selling pills and buying from others of course isn't a smart idea......and I would stop now before your ass ends up in jail. You are already heading down that road [ Xui's advice column | Ask Xui A Question ]
