Drug Crimes Yield Serious Penalties

In Kentucky, drug charges carry serious consequences. Depending on a number of factors, a drug charge can be classified as either a misdemeanor or felony:

• The amount of drugs
• The type of drug
• The circumstances surrounding the arrest

In many cases simply having a large amount of drugs in one's possession can result in a charge of trafficking. Trafficking is usually a felony, and can be punishable by up to 10 years in prison. Significant fines, loss of various civil rights, and inability to find employment are additional consequences of a conviction.

Do not take a chance — if you have been arrested, charged, or are under investigation for drug charges contact a lawyer before talking with police or prosecutors.
