My Freshman son and 3 friends got pulled over after buying beer at a gas station near LSU. Police asked for their “fakes” and gave them all MIP. We called and was told he has to go to court because he used a fake ID to purchase alcohol. I’m expecting a fine but will they take his license on first offense? Any chance to get it taken care of without going to court?

Why did he give up his fake ID so easily?
Next time tell your son to deny having a fake and tell the cops to get a warrant

I doubt much will happen. Pay a fine, maybe go to a "substance abuse awareness" class downtown.
ETA - I got a few of those in high school and college, but no fake ID involved.

Pay a lawyer to make this go away. Make him pay for said lawyer and the fines with his new job he will get tomorrow.
In the long run this experience will benefit him.

Go through this message board and see how many times people say the kids of America are soft.
Ask yourself if you want to raise a soft man.
Your son got himself into trouble, he can get himself out of it.
Tell him there's a website called google and he can figure out his next steps.
Let him be a man.

Pre-trial intervention, cut a deal with the DA's office

If he’s never been in trouble just go to court, MIP in Louisiana pssst
He may get a fine, have to take an alcohol awareness class and possibly community service.
If you pay a lawyer or whatever to get him out he will not learn from this.

I was lucky enough to get an MIP at LSU as well. Didn't show them a fake id but I'm sure they will sweep it under the rug. Handled it all myself and did the diversion course and had it expunged. Did not disclose it to medical school and they never asked me about it. Have been through plenty of background checks with no issues.

Hire a lawyer and make him pay for the attorney. The attorney should be able to get him into diversion if he has nothing else on his record.
Is the ticket in Baton Rouge City Court?

I had this happen at LSU about 18 years ago. I didn’t buy or have a fake, but got an in possession ticket. Think we did pre-trial diversion or something.
It was nothing though, never impacted anything thus far (background checks for jobs, global entry, etc).
Nobody is trying to ruin a kids life over having some beer at 18.

Not much on first offense but if he gets a second it will hit your car insurance like DWI. My buddy found this out the hard way with his kid.

license would be taken for just possessing beer. I feel like something was left out of the story. Was he driving? Was there an open container? What is the actual ticket for? MIP or unlawful possession of fraudulent documents, or both?

What’s the proof of this???? How do the cops know how he purchased the alcohol??

He’ll get a slap on the wrist and get put in pretrial intervention, he’ll do a class on a Saturday and it’ll be done and off the record. The average sentence served for murder is 17 years and they let rapist out on bond, he’ll be fine.

Sounds like he needs advice on not helping cops during their investigations. “I don’t want to answer any questions”. Let them find what they find and try to piece it together.
