A: You need to call an experienced criminal defense lawyer and meet with him or her.

That's what you need to do.

Not an anonymous call for help. And you absolutely should not post any more online. What you say or write, including on the internet, can be used against you.

Many lawyers offer free consultations to people. I would meet with several lawyers. The idea behind the consultation is that you can learn something about the lawyer to decide who is the right lawyer for you.

The idea behind the consultation from the lawyer's point of view is to learn something about the case to get an idea of how much work would be involved so a reasonable fee may be quoted to you.

I hope this helps. Good luck to you.
