Legal Question in Criminal Law in Minnesota

Is there anyway to beat a 1st degree drug possession charge when there has been a controlled buy done. But afterwards the "CRI" starts a relationship with the person charged. No buy money was found no price or product was ever discussed between CRI and victim. Is there silver lining for the poor guy or is he doomed?

You say no product was discussed, but that a controlled buy occurred. Did product change hands? If so, then the other factors can be less significant. You may have other legitimate challenges to raise in your case. Get yourself a good lawyer right away. Feel free to give me a call or email.

I am afraid that any assessment starts with a review of the evidence. It is impossible to determine what defenses may exist with a short blurb that seems to leave out many important facets of the case. You must consult with an attorney.
