Chandler Drug Trafficking Lawyer
Drug trafficking is much more serious than simple possession. If the weight of the drug in your possession is more than the threshold amount that the Arizona drug possession laws impose, you could be charged with drug trafficking which is a class 2 felony.
The threshold amounts for each specific drug are:
- 1 gram of heroin.
- 9 grams of cocaine.
- 4 grams or 50 milliliters of PCP.
- 9 grams of methamphetamine, including methamphetamine in liquid suspension.
- 9 grams of amphetamine, including amphetamine in liquid suspension.
- 2 pounds of marijuana.
Possession of these drugs is a violation of A.R.S. § 13-3408 and is a felony offense in Arizona. But possession can be elevated to trafficking charges if the amount in your possession is greater than the amounts listed above. Drug trafficking is the transportation of illegal substances, whether you cross state borders or not, with the intent to sell. Drug trafficking charges are typically punished more harshly in comparison to other drug-related crimes in Arizona.
- Possession or use of a dangerous drug.
- Possession of a dangerous drug for sale.
- Possession of drug paraphernalia such as equipment or chemicals for manufacture.
- Manufacture of a dangerous drug.
- Administering a dangerous drug to someone else.
- Transport or sale of a dangerous drug.
- Obtain the drug through deceit or fraud.
