Legal Question in Criminal Law in Maryland

Iam on probation in PA and was pulled over while on vacation in Maryland OC... In my posession they found 80 $ and a small small pod of marijuana (smaller than my baby toenail) they also took my tweezers as paraphanelia i dont know why, but it was definitly not used for anything drug related.... the car i was driving was registered under my friends name and it was not stollen just borrowed... I gave them someone elses information, because i got scarred for being in another state because i'm on probation.... now, the person whose name i used.... found out and reported me.... what is going to happen to me??? My name was never given....and it occured in another state

You may be charged with possession of marijuana (1 year max.), paraphernalia ($500.), and false statement (which I think carries 3y max.). What will happen depends on the strength of the state's evidence and who your judge is in Maryland. Any finding against you in Maryland will probably violate your PA probation. Consult a lawyer who is familiar with your PA judge about what he or she is likely to do.
