Who was the lady you talked to? I find it strange that one official told you you would get a suspended license, but then it turns out the charges are going to be totally dropped. But then again, the system is all fucked up. Two different people can go through on the same charge with the same record, one can get jail, the other can go home. It's crazy.

What state are you in, out of curiosity? (if you're comfortable sharing that)
