The sentencing range will depend on the charges as well as the specifics of your past record ( are their felonies or violent crimes etc...). There are however, legal issues which should be addressed. Was their a valid warrant? What was the scope of the permissable search? Did they have authorization to go into the safe? The law has recently changed and drug treatment programs are much more available. Lastly, an arrest warrant is directed towards a person, a serach warrant is directed towards premises.
