All who reside in the house unless there's something to show that you had no clue about the drugs. Bottom line get out now if you know since you are just as legally on the hook for having the drugs in the house and not calling the police or removing them.

Initally, everyone in the house is charged. After the investigation, however, charges are usually dropped on those found not to know or those who were not in possession of the drugs. It's a tactic that is used to get people to inform on others, and it usually works.

Every person who is physically present, for certain. Also, anyone else named on the lease or deed to the house OR known to reside there may be charged. Generally, the cops charge as many as possible and let the judicial system sort out who the judge won't allow to be charged (there are a few instances where this happens).

not just anyone in the house. if they know the person who owns or rents the house has nothing to do with what is going on that person will not be charged.

anyone with drugs on them is charged. If there are drugs found in the home that no one claims they are then charged to the owner/renter of the property.

Everyone present at the time of the raid, and anyone who lives in the home that is not there will have a warrant out for their arrest.

The person who gets charged is the person that has his name on the lease, unless, the person who it belongs to confesses. Anyone can confess even if they did not really do the crime.
Good Luck With That Situation;)

Anyone in the house .... you are just as guilty as the person that put the drugs there. It's like the old saying says ... You lay down with dogs, you get fleas.

The owners of the house and anyone in the presence when they bust it.
