Here is the relevant text of Oklahoma's Public Intoxication statute:
"1.A person who appears to be intoxicated, and as a result of such intoxication is unconscious in a public place or reasonably appears to be in danger of harming himself or herself or others, may be taken into protective custody by a peace officer or an emergency service patrol and immediately brought to an approved treatment facility for medical or nonmedical detoxification. 2.The peace officer or the emergency service patrol, in detaining the person and taking the person to an approved treatment facility, is taking the person into protective custody and shall make every reasonable effort to protect the person’s health and safety. 3.In taking the person into protective custody, the detaining officer may take reasonable steps for self-protection. No record shall be made which indicates that the person has been arrested or charged with a crime." http://www.oscn.net/applications/oscn/DeliverDocument.asp?citeid=84146
It looks like it's not even a misdemeanor.

I know it varies state to state, but I've gotten charged with misdermenors on probation and my PO didn't find out until after I got the charged downgraded into a disorderly persons ordinance violation. I also got an open container in the neighboring state that I never bothered to tell him about. I've heard similar stories of people getting charged in different counties and there POs never found out. If it is in municipal court it isn't the same as superior.

No. It doesn't.
It just means he knows when to shut up. That takes zero balls, but requires common sense.
-------------------- You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers

Why did you comply with the request to search your vehicle?
Next time when asked to step out of the vehicle lock the door behind you and don't consent to a search.
We all know that somewhere in that car is something incriminating. It might even be in the cop's pocket before he does the search.

I knew my car was clean and was hoping they would just search me and leave me the fuck alone.
I went to talk to my PO today and what was said is that it's going to come down to whatever the assistant DA wants to slap me with, they used the term accelerate my deferred sentencing as a possible consequence.
Here hoping they see I was almost done with the whole deal and had no prior infractions.

Watch this video, starting at 15:40, and through 17:30 to the end of this lesson. The scenario specifically applies to this situation. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=yqMjMPlXzdA#!
Maybe take some time to watch this whole thing.
Thanks to Alan, this stuff is all stickied in this forum. I wish that people would watch/read this stuff... it's fantastic information, and there for a reason.

Hopefully you learned your lesson. You fucked up several times in this case and got a ticket and probation violation out of it.
Not smart to tell your PO BTW.
