Bus crew charged with felonies, seeking lawyer

We're hoping to find some Rainbow lawyers out there that would be willing to help us or at least advise us. I have money, but am not rich. My crew of 4 people, all were at the recent NERF regional and we were headed through Fredricksburg, Va when we parked in a parking lot to overnight. A cop said he was patrolling and stopped to investigate trespassing. This was around 11:45pm, he asked for ID which I gave him, then asked if he could search which I politely told him I don't consent to any searches. He then went to his car, came back in about 5-10 mins and said he was going to let us go with a warning for trespassing (he said there were "No Overnighting" signs posted but there weren't, and the manager of the store had no problem with us being there, the morning after we called the owner of the parking lot and he said we could stay there until monday, this happened Thursday night) but then detained us, I believe illegally, for over 20 minutes while he waited on a drug dog. I'm not exactly sure on the times but he got there before midnight and the dog wasn't there until around 12:30 or later. The dog apparently "hit" and they found pot, pipes, and a bottle of pills they said were hydrocodone, tried to interogate us and then arrested and charged all of us with felonies because we had nothing to say to him. One of my friends is still being held without bond due to no ID and not knowing his SSN. We've had lots of people in and out of the bus, as well as people's property being stored on there that weren't on the bus at the time. We were all dirty and two of us had dreadlocks, we live/travel in a full size solid white bus with no exterior artwork. We were polite the entire time. We were then held in the back of the cars for 3+ hours, me being 250+ lbs being made to were female handcuffs, and they refused to double cuff me when extra pairs were avilable. The masigtrate unpon my release from jail told me "Welcome to real life, you look different so we're going to treat you different."

If you or somebody you know can help it would be very appreciated, please post here or call me directly at 434-760-3547

If, by "Rainbow Lawyer" you mean one who will defend you pro bono, then no.
