My friend(18 year old male) at school(a university) got caught smoking marijuana in his room. When campus police arrived to his room, they asked him where he had obtained the marijuana. Rather than taking the entire blame himself, he told the police that he had obtained it from one of my friends and gave them my name.
What had happened was that some days ago I took my friend out with me to one my friends room at a different university near by. While there, my friend asked around for marijuana and my friend whom we were visiting from this other school was able to provide him with some.
So, I get a phone call from the campus police, telling me to come down to the station. I asked what they needed me for and the officer told me he could not tell me over the phone. Immidiatly after, my father called me telling me that the police had contacted him about some marijuana charge and that i immidiatly needed to go down to the station. Now, why would they tell my father, but not me? I am 18 years old, doesn't law require for them to deal directly with me?
Anyways, I went down to the station, and the detective began asking me a bunch of questions(without ever reading me my rights, but i dont know if this is applicable. Is it?) I then told the officer what happened, that I simply had brought my friend along with me and then he went on searched for it and bought the marijuana, and the officer told me that since I was the one that brought him there, I am considered a "drug dealer". I told him this was ridiculous, but he told me other wise.
Anyways, he forced me to tell him whos room we were in at this other school. Also at the end when he asked me if I had any other questions, I politely asked why he contacted my parents, even though I was 18, and he told them what happened, but did not tell me what happened on the phone. He replied in a smartguy voice "WHO PAYS THE BILL FOR COLLEGE?", and i replied "my parents" and he said thats why. Was he aloud to do this? Any help would be appreciated.
