Drug Trafficking

What is Drug Trafficking?

Drug trafficking is a drug crime covering drug transactions and the money created through those transactions. Drug trafficking is broadly defined as the trade or dealing in illegal substances, which covers activities including cultivation, production, manufacturing, distribution, selling, financing, and transporting.

Drug trafficking laws cover a number of illegal substances such as heroin, opium, cocaine, marijuana, hashish and ecstasy pills (MDMA).

What are the consequences of a Drug Trafficking conviction?

If you are found guilty of drug trafficking, the federal government and each state have different punishments, which could include fines, prison time, or a combination of both. A drug trafficking offense will mostly result in a felony criminal charge.
