She went to jail for quite some time because she injured her friend(her friend was above 21 though which is weird and my ex wasnt). Anyways, now I have a $12,000+ collection on my report so I don't know what to do. And, the bad thing is that the truck wasn't worth anywhere near that, more like $6,000 but I was younger and had no credit and got stuck with some crazy 100% interest or whatever it was.

That sounds pretty awful. You might try contacting whoever held the loan and just explaining the situation to them and seeing if you can pay them like $6k or something to settle the account.
