No rights involved. Either you become a CI and possibly not go to jail but get killed. Or you possibly get arrested and need an attorney to keep you from being convicted. LEOs know that you talk to drug dealers on a regular basis. Might be time for a new phone.

Burglary is always a Felony. Violence has nothing to do with the crime conviction. Associated assaults, etc. would be separate crimes.

Probably not...Someone that knows you will turn you in. SOL may protect against some of the crimes. Writing a book like that is basically a confession.

There is not a different code for each year. Find the chapters for the Statutes addressing most of the law you are looking for. Then read the end of each Statute for revisions. Start with the present TCA, then look for any changes made from 2002 forward. The older law will apply in 2001.

Those are State charges, not BF's. Hire a competent attorney as those are serious charges which will destroy your life. Prepare for a rigorous preliminary hearing, and possible trial. Do not plead guilty to DA except with diversion under any circumstances. BF and you need to keep quiet.

You can call the LEO and ask for your property back. Or call the chief or sheriff and complain. Ultimately you would have to sue the LEO and the County for conversion, which is not worth it. You might get a phone.
