What to do if my son was charged with possession of 2 ounces of marijuana and a homemade pipe?
Also, a jar with empty baggies was found in his trunk. He was fingerprinted but we have not received anything in the mail yet. He was one day shy of 18 but was told he would be charged as an adult. This is his 1st offense for anything.

Given what you have written about with respect to your son, I suggest that he immediately consult with a criminal defense attorney about the situation that he has found himself in as a means of damage control. From there, he needs to rely upon his attorney to see what can be done to resolve the issue to his satisfaction.
