Re: posession without knowing?
If your school has a "Zero Tolerance" policy, they may try to expel you but do they even know about it? And if they don't, are you going to tell them?
Also, the fact that you thought it was tylenol could save you, but the kid that gave you the vicoden would in all probability get suspended too.
Re: posession without knowing?
You can be charged if they knew you had it, but it sounds like no one caught you with it.
Even then, if you were mistaken that would be a complete defense.
