Trafficking Laws in New York
The state of New York enforces strict penalties for trafficking. The laws surrounding these types of crimes are very complicated, which means you need a knowledgeable lawyer on your side. Trafficking charges are not strictly based on intent, like many other charges. You could be convicted simply for the amount of drugs you are found in possession of. The prosecution does not have to prove that you had the intent to sell drugs in order to convict you, making it even more crucial for you to obtain counsel.
You could be facing the following penalties:
A minimum of 3 years to life in prison
Revoked probation
A minimum of $25,000 in fines
Loss of property involved in trafficking (such as a home or car)
Any type of criminal charge can bring an onslaught of challenges and legal obstacles. The good news is that you do not have to go through this time alone.
