Legal Question in Criminal Law in Texas

A good friend of mine recently turned him/herself into Palo pinto county jail for transfer to safp.. this person had no pockets so his/her personal items was inside his/her shoe. Among these items was a i.d., some money, and a cigarette.. while being booked in he/she removed the items from the shoe BUT the officer advised that because the tobacco item was remove from the shoes and not pocket the county might bring changes against the individual on the grounds of trying to bring it in. Is this possible and if so how long do they have to do so because this was over 30 days ago. And I believe it may be postponing his/her transfer.
