Sara, an 18-year-old college student, uses cocaine occasionally and was just arrested after buying $200 of it. After spending the night in jail, she is ready to put this whole episode behind her. When she appears before the judge, she has a public defender representing her and the attorney has assured Sara that this is no big deal as it was her first offense.
