Penalties for Drug Distribution
Distribution of drugs is comparable to drug trafficking in that the distributors usually intend to sell the drugs for a profit. The difference, however, is that the distribution is typically carried out on a much smaller scale. Penalties for drug-related offenses can be harsh and the legal consequences are varied and depend on a number of conditions, such as:
- The amount of drugs involved
- If other crimes were a part of the arrest
- Prior conviction(s) of the person charged
- The type of drug involved
- Whether weapons were used
- If children were involved
- A drug distribution conviction is a serious matter, with long-range consequences.
