A 22 year-old from out of state leaves alcohol unknowingly in a minor’s dorm room without offering the minor any of it during the time spent?
Two 22 year-olds from out of state visited me at my college, and one brought an alcoholic beverage. They both drank, but did not offer me any during the time they spent in my room. They, however, forgot that they had left the remainder of the alcohol in my room, and I drank the alcohol in my room alone. However, i got sick and was sent to the university health center, and then the police found out. with my school policy, i won’t get in trouble, but will the 21-year old who brought the alcohol will? i asked the detective, and he promised that the 21 year-old wouldn’t, but can i trust him?
