Holy shit dude that's intense.  Hopefully this will go nowhere other than some misdemeanor charges.  I mean, if the judge/jury/whoever finds that your San Pedro was legal to import, the cops look like complete jackasses wasting all that manpower to find those tiny quantities of drugs.  I guess you didn't mention how much shroomage they found.  Can you let us in on that?  IDK man, it sounds like it could get tossed out.  I don't know how the laws are in Australia, but it seems like they shouldn't have been there in the first place, which could possibly make all evidence inadmissible.  I don't know enough about the laws in Australia or the details of your case to be able to tell you though. 

Best of luck.

Not many shrooms (tiny little handful). They told me they are not going to charge me for anything that they found, only the charge of attempted import.

they're probably going to charge you with the whole weight of the cactus.

im not sure about the laws in australia but you should contact a lawyer like now....

If it were fresh, you could claim purchasing it to add to your garden, but dried san pedro is considered prepared for consumption. Kind of like in the netherlands, fresh mushrooms were legal but dried was illegal, until they banned the fruit bodies all together (sclerotia still being legal because it isn't technically a mushroom). On one side of the coin, they will unfortunately push to charge you with the full weight, like if your growing pot, they weigh the entire plant and not just the buds. Fortunately, the cactus was dried, so the weight should be very reduced.

I think your best defense would to be to go with the adding to your garden story, and tell them they shipped you dry by mistake - not sure if there is much defense to admitting to ordering the dry stuff. Best of luck man, feds fucking suck, sorry to hear about this mess they're putting your family through.

> They told me they are not going to charge me for anything that they found, only the charge of attempted import.

That's a common cop lie.  "Hand it over and we won't charge you with it..."

If they weren't going to charge you with what they find in the house then why search in the first place?

Hopefully you didn't say anything to them.  Unless they did a controlled delivery or can track payment from you then they really have no proof you ordered anything.  Anybody could have sent or ordered the package.

Good luck, hope it works out for you.  I'd imagine that you won't get much time, if any, when it's all said and done.

If you were planning to extract mescaline from the dried material and there was evidence of this on your computer you could be charged with some kind of drug production charge.

If anyone has sensitive information I would recommend some kind of encryption software, truecrypt is a free program but I have heard it can be a bit hard to get the hang of.

I have also heard in the past of people running operating systems off external hard drives, and one of them was even an ipod.
