Drug trafficking cases are tried in both state and federal court. Prosecutors are relentless in their pursuit of trafficking offenses. Substances typically involved in these cases include:
- Marijuana
- Methamphetamine
- Heroin
- Ecstasy
Penalties increase for “harder” drugs that are considered more addictive. A sentence may be increased even further if drugs were sold to a minor or in a school zone. In addition to prison time you may be facing the government’s seizure of property, mandatory forfeit of all profits made from drug sales, the loss of your driver’s license, and the loss of any professional licenses.
