I got arrested last Monday and the scum raided my gaff and seized a few broken laptops and phones, some scales and my lockbox and that’s on top of the phone they seized that I had on me. What do I do now? Shall I stick with my public pretender or break the bank and hire some ghoul to defend me?
When I was in my cell the rat who put me in cuffs (despite my full cooperation) came over and sheepishly asked for my phone password and I told him where to stick it.

Despite the defiant tone, I know that Smog is quite worried about what will happen next. Does anyone have any advice for him on navigating the criminal justice system?

I'm very sorry to hear that you've been arrested
It's hard to advise you as I have no personal experience
It's going to depend on what you've been charged with, if you've got a record, how strong the case against you is, and what the likely outcome will be
I hope you get it sorted

^ If you haven't got a record, avoid getting one (if possible), no matter how light the charge or penalty. It can make life difficult

So you might be charged with possession?
What class of drugs?
I didn't think the police bother too much with possession these days
They may well let you off with a caution - here's hoping

Doesn't sound very serious. Here's hoping they decide it's not worth charging you.
Why did they raid you?
Did someone tip them off?
Did they think you might be dealing?

They arrested me while I was out and about and then raided my house whilst I was in a cell. Said they’d received information I was up to my neck in it and they raided the house based on that. |

I think the main concern here is indeed that the police will put two and two together and get five, and charge Smog with possession with intent to supply. Unfortunately, the seizure of some scales is likely to make them think along these lines. If it's possession only, I think it's very likely to be disposed of with a simple caution, and that's the outcome I'm hoping for.

The solicitor called about fifteen minutes ago in response to an email I sent him a few days ago. I asked him about the scales and what they seized and he said if they were going to do me over on trumped up charges they’d have kept me at the station when they did. |

Well, that sounds very promising. This may be heading towards a simple or conditional caution.
