Don;t start sentences with "ok"; you are not talking to your homies.

Learn to spell, and punctuate..

Hang out with a better class of people.

Get a lawyer. The court will appoint one for you if you can't hire one, but you would probably be better off with private counsel.

It's not clear why the police executed the warrant at your friend's house, but even if they made a mistake you are probably not going to be able to complain about it. (Note that I said "probably". This is something you may be able to fight about.) If the police made an honest mistake, then anything they found while properly executing the warrant is fair game -- even against you. And even if this wasn't an honest mistake, chances are that your friend is the only one who can challenge the search.

Good luck.
