Honey after what you just posted you wouldn't even make it during the jury selection phase. Besides in most cases its a misdemeanor and won't even go before a jury. Most misdemeanors go before a judge only. She's just been arrested at this point, so it may not even get to a court.

Jeb Bush's daughter arrested on false prescription charge

January 29, 2002 Posted: 12:28 PM EST (1728 GMT)

TALLAHASSEE, Florida (CNN) -- The daughter of Florida Gov. Jeb Bush was arrested early Tuesday after she allegedly tried to fill a false prescription at a pharmacy, Tallahassee, Florida, police said.

Noelle Bush was picked up by police and charged with fraudulently obtaining a controlled substance, a jail spokesman said.

Bush, in her early 20s, was released pending a court appearance. It was not immediately known if she had to post bail.

Bush and his wife released a statement on the incident.

"Columba and I are deeply saddened over an incident that occurred last night involving our daughter Noelle," the statement said. "This is a very serious problem. Unfortunately, substance abuse is an issue confronting many families across our nation. We ask the public and the media to respect our family's privacy during this difficult time so that we can help our daughter. We will have no further comment on this issue. Thank you for your understanding."
