Caught Selling Prescription Drugs in a School Zone?!?

Question by Mark: Caught selling prescription drugs in a school zone?!?
So here is the story. In December of 2011 I got caught smoking weed at school. I went to court and they just told me to straighten up. Now, February of 2012, I got caught on camera selling drugs to another student. I never got confronted about it until a few days later when I drank a whole bottle of hydrocodone with clozopans. I am being charged with “Public drunkenness, drugs with intent to sell(i think it was trafficking drugs, not sure), tobacco on school grounds, receiving stolen property(cough syrup).
I know this wasn’t the right thing to do, I learned my lesson and don’t need a lecture.
I live in Pittsburgh PA
Remember that this was all done inside of a school zone.
What is going to happen at court?

Question by “Jim Crockett Promotions Fan”: Your reaction to Matt Hardy being told to go to rehab?
Former WWE and TNA wrestler Matt Hardy was essentially told by authorities in North Carolina to attend rehab or face a tough legal situation following three arrests in the span of one month. Hardy will still have to face charges stemming from his third recent arrest, which was for drug possession, after he attends rehab.

“That is only part of the release order,” said Moore County District Attorney Maureen Krueger to The Pilot newspaper. “It also states that he must comply with a treatment program or be placed in the detention center under a $ 1 million bond.”
