It was around 1 am in the morning when I left my girlfriends house when I got to the end of the road I stopped and made a left turn. As I made the left turn I saw headlights coming from the other direction, I couldn't tell what kind of ca it was. I kept driviving for over a mile and realized it was a Sonoma county sheriff. He pulled me over because he " had difficulty reading my license plate cause there was a small 5" crease on the plate". I told him there was nothing wrong with my dads truck. I sat there for more than 30 min. Then out of know where he opens my door grabs my arm and starts pulling me out of the vehicle. As he's doing this I told him I don't consent to searches and wtf! He then searches me found a pipe and meth, then searches my truck where he found a unloaded gun in a box buried under the seat. So, charges are possession of a fire arm while addicted to drugs with a prior possession of meth a 2002 felony. I wasn't under the influence, on probation,parole, driving erratic, never read my Miranda rights. The gun was a family heirloom that was giving to me and I can get an affidavit for that. I'm fighting it taking it to trial. I have a court appointed attorney who I believe is fraudulently misrepresenting me hasn't given me paperwork I requested. Like a copy of the complaint and other documents. They suggested I use prop 47 to get the 2002 felony reduced to a misdemeanor. I don't know if they're trying to set me up. This is SONOMA county were talking about!. Out on bail. Need some insight please
