Legal Question in Criminal Law in Arizona

I was arrested driving in a stolen vehicle a Jeep. In the Jeep, some drugs were found. I was charged with theft of the Jeep, as well as for the drugs. I didn't steal the Jeep, and the owner is going to go to the police and inform them that he had actually sold it to me, but was so drunk he didn't remember. My question is can they still hold the drug charges on me if the Jeep was legally sold to me?

The issue is the strength of the charge and raising your defense. You need to consider retaining experienced counsel to aggressively represent you.
