My question involves criminal law for the state of: California
Ok let me get down to it. I just turned 26, im a college graduate, I make decent money. Arrest record - drunk in public (2008,2010)
Now to the night my life turned upside down.
It was last Saturday night, my bestfriends girlfriend turned 25 and we decided that we would go out to a bar in the small town we live in (population 1800) the solo bar in this town is about a half a mile from his house where we all were planning on staying on couches and guest rooms. Back story of this week. I have costocondritis from a previous highschool football injury. Never went to the doctor for it but my boss finally sent me when he was tired of me complaining at work about it. They prescribed me a handful of vicoden 5mg and referred me to a specialist. So that day I had taken one in the morning and once at about 4oclock pm. back to the night. We went out and I had a couple beers and we were all enjoying eachother and having a great time, at about midnight I had realized that I was feeling a bit weird. Not a bad weird like I was sick but like the alcohol was effecting me more then my friends. I took it in stride and carried on. That's when the lights went out for me. Now I can remember snipits in the night like walking home with everyone but on the way I seen an old friend who happens to be the next door neighbor to the people that I went out with. I went to her house for awhile (from what im told) and she asked me to help walk her sister home who lives bout a quarter mile in the opposite direction of the bar (again this is what im told) she told me that I had seen another friend on the way who lived at this house. I know nobody on that side of main street. And apparently that police report said that I broke a window of a mans car with a rock. Now I don't know the details of what the guy who called said or what. the next thing I know im waking up in the jail with no shirt no shoes. No idea of what I had done and scared to death. I didn't know if I hit somebody driving or if I had got in a fight or what. Absolutely no idea of what I actually did. Now Im a grown man and should be held accountable for my actions but for all I know someone broke into a car and I was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. The police report said a man with black shorts on, I clearly had on light colored kakis. Ive never stolen anything from a person in my life, and am very embarrassed that that is a label on my self right now. I have hired an attorney and am awaiting a court date. (by the way, didn't have to bond out of jail, which strikes me odd because on my way out the arresting officer told me it was a felony). Never been in this situation before, and I don't meet with my attorney until my file gets to the DA which we think will be this Thursday. But im having a real hard time dealing with this, so was hoping to reach out to someone on here that maybe has a couple answers to help me sleep. Ive done a little research and 3 years in prison is enough to make my nighmares come alive at night especially when I have worked so hard to get to the point I am in life. Any advice, even constructed critisim is welcome. And NO I do not belive I took anything from the vehicle as far as im told though.
