I'm over 21 and was recently busted. I ran from the cops too, which was stupid. They caught me with 2.5 grams and an open bottle of liquor(which I wasn't charged). The cops were laughing and joking the whole time and just seemed bored. I was asked a bunch of questions, not just name and address, but they never read me my Miranda Rights. While I was being booked however, the booking officer said my case will probably be dismissed since it was my first offense and I'm 'clean cut' looking. He even said herbals should be legal. I've only been in Illinois for a few months, and was planning to leave soon for school. However, booking officer also told me if I bone out of Chicago, they won't really give a crap since it's just a misdemeanor. But I've heard misdemeanors coming back to haunt people years later, plus I want the misdemeanor off my record just in case. I'm a broke student relying on financial aid, FAFSA asks you if you've been convicted of possession. Anyone saavy on Illinois cannabis laws and lawyers? Any info will be cool.
