What is the name of your state? INDIANA

I RECENTLY GOT POPPED FOR A DOPE CASE, I WASN'T CAUGHT WITH ANYTHING IN MY POSSESSION BUT I WAS ACCUSED OF DEALING. I WAS IN THE CAR DURING A DEAL, BUT THE DRUGS NEVER CROSSED MY PATH NOR DID I SEE THEM. THE DRUG TASK FORCE COACHED ME THROUGH MY INITIAL "CONFESSION" THEY ASKED QUESTIONS I DIDN'T KNOW THE ANSWERS TO AND I JUST SAID OKAY AND WHATEVER. THEY TOOK US TO JAIL AND MY CO-DEFENDANT, TOLD ME THAT SHE TOLD THEM I HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT BUT NOW I AM WONDERING IF THAT IS THE TRUTH. I BELIEVE THAT SHE IS PUTTING THIS ALL ON ME TO GET OUT OF IT. SHE WAS A CONFIDENTIAL INFORMANT AN FEW TIMES BEFORE AND SHE IS LOOKING AT 26 YEARS, I HAVE A FIRST PLEA OF 13, THAT I TURNED DOWN. MY LAWYERS SAY NOT TO WORRY BUT THAT SEEMS TO BE HARD FOR ME. I KNOW THAT I SHOULD HAVE GET OUT OF THE CAR AS SOON AS I REALIZED WHAT WAS GOING ON BUT I CAN'T CHANGE THAT NOW. ANY SUGGESTIONS?? :(

If your "okays" and "whatevers" amounted to a confession, you are sunk. If you are planning to testify that the police coached you and you were just telling them what they wanted to hear so you could leave, that never convinces a jury. Your friend probably did sell you out. Reconsider a plea bargain.
