A friend of mine had an unfortunate brush with the law last week. He just confided in me and is quite anxious about things, I wonder if anyone who is a little more aware of the law may be able to offer advice.
The guy drives an expensive sports car and was pulled over by the cops, they claim he was driving irratically but I think this was just they excuse they used to pull over a young man in an expensive car.
They found about a 3rd of a litre of G-BL in one unmarked bottle in the car and another small amount in another bottle in his pocket.
They arrested him kept him in the cell all day then interviewed him. They have a couple who were in a car that was behind him who say he was driving dangerously. I think they are just a couple of fuddy duddys who saw him overtake or something and reckon it was a bit risky. I know the guy wouldnt intentionally drive dangerously.
The cops didnt know what the gb-l was, my friend told them it was a health supplement. They made a song and dance over it suspecting it was a class A drug and sent it away for analysis.
They released my friend on bail, he has to go back in a month to face the music.
The police breathalised him which came up negative. They drugs tested him that came up negative, they also had a doctor test his coherency, (they had him walk in a strait line whilst counting etc) the doctor said he was fine.
They later released him gave him back his car keys and he drove away.
Will they couple the GB-L with the "erratic driving" and take him to court? Or will they just drop the charges because possession of G-BL is not illegal and they have no proof of dangerous driving apart from this couple of people who claim they saw it?
My friend is in a bad way fretting about it, I fear he may go back into a bad binge because of the anxiety.
I think possession of G-bl in the uk is not illegal.
If anyone can help me put his mind a rest I would appreciate it.
