Legal Question in DUI Law in New York

Possession Alcohol Underage,,,DD

I'm 17 years old and I live in Delmar, New York, i drove 3 of my friends home from a party the other night a state trooper pulled us over, searched the car and found alcohol on the 3 other kids, i was 100% sober and offer to be breathalized this didn't happen...i remained sober and drug free for I'm currently on A.C.O.D,,, the cop had us there for 2 hours then pulled us out of the car and gave us all unlawful possession of alcohol underage and a second ticket for me for driving after 9 out of class,,, I didn't want my friends to drive drunk so i thought it would be better than sitting in the back and watch them kill themselves and me or others on the road...the state trooper gave no reason to pull us over and the next day as if to have a reason to pull us over drove to mind friends house to drop off a ticket he claimed to forgot about which was a no seatbelt ticket... a key phrase i kept reading on 65-c unlawful possession of alcohol underage is the INTENT TO CONSUME i had no intent to consume the beer for i was the DD nor was it mine,,,my parents want little to do with the charges and i must pay for a lawyer myself the court would not allow me a public defender..... any suggestions or help is greatly appreciated.
