Sentences for Arizona Drug Crimes – What You Need to Know

In Arizona, drug crimes are covered by state and federal laws. The courts in Arizona will consider the following factors in determining the sentence for a drug crime:

  • Type of Drug
    If it is a Federal Case, The Controlled Substances Act classifies drugs into penalty groups. These penalty groups range from 1 to 5, with 1 being the most serious. Cocaine for example would be a group 1 drug and be more serious than prescription drugs which are a group 3 drug.
  • Quantity
    The amount of drugs you had in your possession will be another determining factor. Prison sentences, fines, and other penalties will be increased depending on the amount of drugs in your possession.
  • Purpose
    What was the drug used for? Generally, simple possession will not be as severe. But, if you are charged with possession with intent to distribute, or manufacturing and delivering drugs for example, you can expect more severe penalties.
  • Location
    The location of the violation will also be taken into consideration. For example, drug offenses at or near a school or daycare center, will have more severe penalties.
  • Multiple Offenses
    The court will also consider if the drug offense was combined with another offense. In many cases, other crimes such as conspiracy, theft, or assault are related to drug crimes. If the other offense or offenses are a felony, especially a violent crime, the penalties will be extremely severe.

If you are facing charges for any drug crime in Chandler, AZ, it is crucial that you speak with a drug crimes defense attorney immediately.

As a firearms instructor, I can feel confident in recommending my students and community to reach out to James Belcher as a great point of contact to get the professional and friendly service to seek the legal protection needed for the "after self-defense" defense. Thank you James 🫡

James Belcher has been such an amazing point of contact for me since the day I inquired for information to protect our church security team with the AOR coverage. When they were revamping their system to optimize to make our situation work well, he was the one to reach out and always has been friendly, professional, and a great representation for their company. I definitely will recommend AOR and James to all my people.
