Understanding Virginia Beach Drug Trafficking Penalties

Most of the drugs that come into Virginia State arrive from other regions. In fact, we have seen a drastic increase in the number of drug trafficking in the area, which has led to more arrests and convictions for those arrests. In response to this, law enforcement has become especially strict in regulating drug crimes.

Because drug trafficking is considered a felony, one could face severe criminal penalties for even possessing the slightest amount of an illegal controlled substance.

Under Virginia Code § 18.2-248.01, it is a felony to carry these amounts:

1 oz or more of a Schedule I or II substance

1 oz or more of cocaine

5 pounds or more of marijuana

The minimum penalties for drug trafficking may include the following penalties:

5 and up to 40 years in prison, required to

A fine of up to $500, 000

If convicted a second time of drug trafficking crime, one could also potentially face life imprisonment. As you can see, prosecutors never take these cases lightly, and neither do we! Daniel J. Miller knows that the implications of a criminal charge, especially a drug crime, are severe. You want to protect your livelihood and your reputation, especially if you were wrongly accused.
