According to the officer, the 5 accused were present, and Pittio owned up to the weed saying quote, "It's just a little wet weed, a little bit of dust, that I was going to use to make fudge," End quote.
Because it was found at the residence of the other 4 persons, they were all arrested, charged, and brought to court.
