You appear to have 3 distinct problems: felony probation violation, robbery charges, and drug charges. You are in a heap of trouble simply because of the number of legal problems you're facing. The only answer anyone can give you right now is to see a criminal lawyer in your area. Most criminal lawyers give free consultations. If your matters are in Los Angeles, don't hesitate to call me for a free consultation. Steve Mandell 310 393 0639

I've read S. M's. reply, and will only suppliment it.

You've got very little that you can do if the facts were that you borrowed a stolen cell phone. However the cell phone will show the calls made prior to you getting the phone. If some of these calls were made by the guy that loaned the phone to you that might be some evidence to back up your story of a loaned cell phone. Otherwise the loaned phone sounds really phony.
