Drug Distribution Charges
The penalties for federal and state drug distribution convictions vary depending on several factors. These factors include the type or classification of the illegal drug involved, the amount of drugs involved, and whether or not minors were involved. Prior drug convictions of the offender may also be a factor. Those who bring into the U.S. large quantities of illegal drugs for distribution are subject to the harshest penalties. Consequences for drug distribution or transportation include long prison terms, heavy fines, probation, registration as a narcotics offender, forfeiture of assets, court-ordered drug testing and/or counseling, search and seizure of property, and deportation for illegal aliens.
