Possession
A drug arrest may result in multiple connected counts, with increasing penalties as the class of charges increases. In North Carolina, possession of a specific quantity of any controlled substance may result in a charge and possible conviction for trafficking. A trafficking conviction carries a minimum mandatory jail sentence, even for first offenses. The quantity of a substance an individual is charged for possessing makes a large distinction as far as the potential consequences of a conviction. If you’ve been charged with drug sale, drug delivery or drug trafficking, quick measures should be taken to safeguard your rights. Not all drug charges end in similar penalties in the case of a conviction. It is crucial to stand up to these charges.
