Almost a year to the day later a new county attorney charged both my friend and I with manufacturing because of a bottle of liquid found in the basement on that search which had been found positive on the use of manufacturing . How can they find positve for the use in the manufactere doesnt that mean an ingredient and how can i be held in possession of things in his basement
