Me and my boyfriend are both 16 and we were taking liquor to a party. We decided to stop and park at a nearby park away from everyone and mess around in the back. Unfortunatly, about an hour later the police drove up and asked us for our ID's and to step out of the car. They immediatly started asking me if i had weapons, to which i said no. Then the police officer asked, "May I look?" thinking he was refferring just to the weapons, and thinking he was jsut going to glance around to see if some big guns hanging around, I said yes. To my surprise, he went through everything. He opened up all my bags that I had, which were zipped shut, and found the alcohol, then looked through my boyfriends coat, to which he didint consent to be searched. In the coat he found some old marijuana,which he hadn't smoked for months and which i knew nothing about. This was a first offense for the both of us. Are they aloud to search closed bags and coats which did not belong to me? does "may I take a look" mean the same as "may I thouroughly search your car?". I was fined $75 and my boyfriend $150. Is there anyhitng we can do?
