YES. GEnerally the homeowner is presumed to be the owner of that which is found within his home, as well as responsible for actions of a minor.
There are many possibilities to defend against such a case. My office does a lot of work with posession cases, please feel free to contact my office for assistance with this situation. 2127098303
