Surprise! Surprise! The fellow left a small vile of crack rocks on the backseat. My friend gets aressted, blah, blah, blah...

Goes to court and winds up with probation depsite the fact that he has spent a year in prison for assulat and was recently arrested for a drunk hit-and-run.
If I was your friend I would have said that the guy had held him at knife point and told him to drive. As he fled the scene I doubt they could have argued against it?
