Sounds like you have all the evidence you need to determine whether you should continue to be involved with this person. For now, keep what you have in case you need it later. Just know that you continue to engage in a back-and-forth, the court may have equally as short of patience with you as with... View More

With modern technology, it's rare to see a paper arrest warrant. Police can arrest you for misdemeanors committed in their presence, or felonies upon information - there is no distinction between violent or non-violent. Search warrants are a different story.

The 4th Amendment does govern whether a warrant may be issued and when. Be careful with legal research and relying on case law for information unless you are trained to do so.

This is a serious matter as you are charged with a felony. Regardless of jail time, having a felony carriers a number of long term consequences.

There's not a question that I can see, but you've presented facts that suggest you want to know about bonafide third party purchasers for value. If you are without notice that the guns were stolen, when you purchased them, then you might grounds to keep the rifles. Depending on where... View More

Without knowing the particulars of the crime, the applicable sentencing guidelines, or whether he... View More

It's not advisable. It's actually illegal to be in possession of prescription medication not your own. Will the police break down your aunt's door looking for it? Probably not unless she has her own legal issues. But it may not be worth the exposure risk.

You will likely need two different lawyers because your issues are with two completely separate areas of the law.
