Lesson Overview

14.09 – Getting Caught With Someone Else’s Drugs: Being near drugs that aren’t yours can still get you charged. If they’re in your car, home, or backpack, police may assume they belong to you. This is called “constructive possession,” meaning you had control or access. Even if someone else admits they own the drugs, it may not clear you unless they prove it. The law focuses on who could have used or hidden the drugs, not just who bought them. Hanging around people who use or sell can put you at risk of being blamed. Once charges start, you must prove you had no knowledge or control. That can be hard without witnesses or evidence. Staying away from those situations is often the only real protection. Understanding this helps people make safer choices about who and what they’re around.
