  This. A drunk guy arguing against a business owner and a cop with no witnesses and no surveillance has an uphill slog. Unfortunate, maybe, but true.
  
  Does OH provide public defenders for a misdemeanor? I don't think they're required to, and many states do not. Only for felony charges.
  
  You can check with a legal aid org at your school or city to talk options. Or you can hire a lawyer. Avvo and martindale are good spots to start the legal search.

  Again...check with your college. I know at BGSU they have a lawyer that helps defend students when they're accused of underage drinking, traffice, disorderly, etc. Free of charge. And that dude is one busy mofo.

  They have to get EVERY juror to believe you did whatever you are accused of doing. If you truly didn't do it, then you don't have much to worry about it.

  Lol at the jury comment.
• TedSheckler

  

  You just have to hope the jury gets sequestered. Once the story gets out to the media, they could become tainted.
  
  I'm looking forward to watching the trial on Court TV.
