Your question is far too broad. Defenses are devised based on the particular facts of the case and the evidence available to the prosecutor. Additionally, the type of contraband and the amount of the contraband influences the level of the criminal offense.

Make no mistake, drug possession charges are extremely serious. Your daughter should decline to speak with law enforcement and should immediately retain legal counsel.
