when you say that the quote is normal for a lab, are you referring to the part where they say they initialed the seal since there werent any when they recieved it? And no, rest assured this is not my only defense. Searching without consent is a key factor in my case, this was just another area I wanted to inquire about since I only get to see my public defender 2 seconds before we walk into court. Thank you for your response. It is greatly appreciated

You said that the lab said "seal was initialed by laboratory personnel to meet accreditation standards." This is government double-speak for "I initisaled the seal when it arrived at the lab, because that's what we are supposed to do". It does NOT say that a seal which was required to be signed by anyone Law enforcement left blank by prior LEO involved in the case.

Also,our PD is concerned about your case. A private lawyer is also more likely to consider that AND your future. I've been both. Consider a private lawyer since your future is too valuable to entrust to an overworked public defender.
