You very much need an experienced lawyer to handle this and you shouldn't write any details on a public website. If the drugs and scales weren't in your room then your case should be dismissed.

A qualified attorney can get the warrant out of the system immediately. If it's merely a petty theft, you likely won't need any bail. Get it cleared up with either a private attorney or a public defender and see what you can do to get the charges dismissed.

Theoretically yes, though highly unlikely based upon the limited facts you've posted here. The DA will likely see this as a ploy to help someone else out, rather than taking actual responsibility.

I recommend hiring a lawyer. If you have no criminal history, a lawyer may be able to get the case dismissed. It's helpful to give the lawyer as much background on you as possible so that he/she may humanize you and explain that this situation is out of character and possibly a mistake on the... View More

You can ask for an independent analysis of the substance to see if it is what it's alleged to be. Labs charge around $150 or more for such a service. If you don't have an attorney, you should consult one in your area immediately.
