Re: arrested 18 year old
No adult is responsible for another adult's crime based on mere residence. However, if the facts suggest complicity (purchase under circumstances suggesting an attempt to circumvent the law for the child), the parent could be responsible.
Re: arrested 18 year old
As an adult your child's arrest is his problem. However, if you provided him with the alcohol or purchased it for him you may have some problems.
I am not a criminal attorney, however, if you need one I can recommend one for you to call.
