Hi Amber! It sounds like there are several serious issues with the arrest and discovery details. Here are some steps you can take:
- Consult an Attorney: Given the seriousness of the issues, it may be best to consult with a criminal defense attorney who can provide specific advice and representation.
- File a Motion to Suppress: An attorney can file a motion to suppress evidence if it was obtained unlawfully.
