Do I have the right to clear my name under these circumstances?

Question

Back story:
I am 17, I recently moved back to the united states after living overseas for several years. My parent works for a company in which we are stationed at different locations around the globe. While living there i had to undergo thorough physical tests including blood tests for drugs. And if I were to be caught, or anyone in my family, this would jeopardize my parents work and my parent would be fired from their job. So to put it nicely, I am drug free of narcotics etc.

Before I had moved out of the united states i had made whom i thought was a friend, we were friends for almost 10 years. We maintained our friendship over the several of years i had lived overseas and every two years I'd come back to visit her. Now after moving back only after one month of living here; She had used me as a scapegoat. One night she had told her father that she was with me and my mother (without telling me, and without my permission) and she went out to go get high etc. She came home late and her sister had caught her. Her sister told her father and her father asked her about her activities and this girl denied them completely. Her father knew she was lying but assumed that I had given her the drugs because she had told him earlier that she was with me. She didn't deny this and I had become the blame of her actions.

Now, my school often has many police there and there is an awful lot of drug dealing etc at my school (And kids get caught) should i have the right to report this to the police to clear my name to prevent her father; family pointing fingers at me in case there is a drug raid at school. I feel very uncomfortable being labeled as a druggy or drug pusher and I do not want this to jeopardize my future. I want to go in the military and a good college and i know there is a zero tolerance for drug users.

Is it right to go to the authorities and explain my situation. I also have MSN conversations to prove these happenings.

im sorry but what a crappy friend!

usually in high school or some point in life, 1/4 of a group will screw up their life with drugs, sex, or alcohol. its sad and painful for their loved ones to see this but face it: those druggies dont care about anything but getting their hands on more goods. she probably doesnt recognize it but she should be grateful to have a friend like you whos been by her side. heres what you should do... first talk to your parents. make sure ya'll are on good terms. if your folks are like mine, they would be embarassed and humiliated by this news. im american and indian and im sure to your family that reputaion especially in usa is important. the most iportant is that you still have that trust foundation with the ones who really love you and care about you. next talk to the creppo's family (i suggest going with a family member to be on the safe side) and explain where you were that night and that she had lied to them. explain what you were doing, whom you were with, and with a parent there supporting you, its much more believable. next is the cops: explain the situation, give the names and contact number of those you were with, let them do a search in your room or place, and tell the truth of where you were, whom you were with, and what you were doing. your friend is a crappy, crappy, rotten jerk, and im so sorry that someone as sweet as you was put under this horrific situation. but like my favorite teacher said: all you can do is move on. the past has occured and theres no going back. its what you do for the rest of your life that matters from now on :) good luck! ill pray for the best! e-mail me anytime if you have any questions, concerns, or even if youre hurt or upset and need to talk to someone :) im really sorry and ay gods peace be with you!

What happens to all of us when we die? We return to the dust, for from the dust we were made. (Genesis 3 v 19) When God created the first humans, they became living souls, not given one separately. (Genesis 2 v 7) The Bible says "the soul that is sinning (and we are all sinners) - it itself will die". (Ezekiel 18 v 4) The condition of the dead, all the dead, is unconsciousness. "The living are conscious that they will die, but as for the dead, they are conscious of nothing at all. All that your hand finds to do, do with your very power, for there is no work nor devising nor knowledge nor wisdom in the grave (Sheol in Hebrew, often translated as hell), the place to which you are going." (Ecclesiastes 9 v 5 & 10) Romans 5 v 12 says; "Through one man (Adam) sin entered into the world and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men because they had all sinned." Jesus said his friend Lazarus was "asleep in death". This is the true Christian belief of what happens to all when they die. However, the Bible also teaches that "all those in the memorial tombs will come out" or be resurrected back here on earth. In another verse it says "there will be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous". (John 5 v 28; Acts 24 v 15) So everyone resurrected from the grave gets a second chance at that time. Whether they choose to accept this opportunity or reject God's provision will be their adult choice. If they accept, they have possibility of living forever on a paradise earth (Psalms 37 v 29; Revelation 21 v 4). If they reject God's will then they will "cease to be" forever. Eternal destruction, the Bible calls it, not eternal torment. Revelation 20 v 14 says that death and hell will be destroyed in a lake of fire, symbolizing complete and utter destruction. I think if I were to die and then be resurrected, I'd definitely go with God's plan. I enjoy life on earth even now, if there were no wickedness, sorrow, mourning or death, I'd want to life forever.

Answer 3

The police are not the correct destination in this case.



You need to have an open and honest conversation with her father, and explain to him that you are not the source, and that his daughter is into drugs.



Not something he wants to hear, but better he does hear it than spend a lifetime denying her issues.

Answer 5

of course it is. first explain to you parents what has happened, and then with their support, explain to the police what has happened, and take the msn convos with you as proof. i think thats the best thing for you to do right now, but you have to be honest with your parents as soon as possible.
