Jolly was a dumbass for being in that situation.
HOWEVER, the case against him is very weak. First of all, they drew suspicion, because there were four black guys sitting in a car. That ain't right. Second, they police did a search based on the "odor of codeine." Which HAS no mf'ing odor.
Third, all the the codiene in the car was put on Jolly, because he was the "driver." But there was no driver. The car was parked.
Now I know alot of people get tickets for being drunk in a car even if they're not driving. They need to fire their lawyers.

The fact is the prosecutor dropped this case, and I do not think they will refile. A guy like Jolly can get a real lawyer. They prosecutors would be wasting their time.
Jolly needs to learn a big lesson from this.
