Proving Innocence In Illinois

Hello Ashley, you're in a tough situation. In Illinois, it can be difficult but not impossible to prove innocence in situations like these. A few steps you can take:
- Hire a good defense attorney
- Provide evidence of your husband's lack of knowledge about the drugs
- Challenge the legality of the traffic stop and search
Remember, this is general advice. Each situation is unique and requires a professional analysis.

To prove lack of knowledge, consider:
- Testimonies from people who can vouch for his character or unawareness.
- Surveillance footage, if available, showing no involvement.
- Text or call logs that suggest he was unaware.
- His past record, if clean.
Please consult a defense attorney for details.

Fingerprinting evidence is not a requirement in all cases but can be helpful. However, absence of your husband's fingerprints on the drugs might support his claim of non-involvement. Discuss this with your defense attorney.

In Illinois, polygraph or lie detector test results are typically not admissible in court due to their unreliability. However, your attorney might suggest taking one to help build your husband's defense. Remember to discuss this with your attorney.

Sure, Ashley. Here are some additional points:
- Ensure your husband does not incriminate himself during police questioning.
- Gather character references who can vouch for your husband's integrity.
- Document all interactions with law enforcement.
- Work closely with your defense attorney to build a strong case.
Remember, this is general advice. Always consult with your attorney.

You're welcome, Ashley. I'm glad I could provide some guidance. Remember, it's crucial to consult with a defense attorney regarding your husband's case. Don't hesitate to reach out if you have any more questions. Good luck!
