If you were charged with a higher penalty crime and it was reduced to poss. of drug paraphernalia i would be happy with that. If you try to get it reduced more it probably won't do any good. Chances are if you talk with the DA of that area you may be able to convince them to give you community service, etc. Depending on their laws and local restrictions.
