Someone left them in my car. She made it sound like i have been an addict all this time. The judge said they didnt require the burden of proof from that case. It has not even been tried yet. Guilty till innocent it seems. She has gotten the judge to agree to making me take hair follicle testing. I feel thats an invasion. I have to take piss tests all over again.
