What Is Drug Trafficking?

Drug trafficking is the act of transporting, selling, or importing illegal drugs. This crime is taken very seriously by both state and federal prosecutors, and a conviction can result in severe penalties.

Some of the most commonly trafficked drugs include:

  • Marijuana
  • Cocaine
  • Heroin
  • Methamphetamine
  • Prescription drugs

Drug trafficking charges can be filed against an individual who is caught in possession of a large quantity of drugs, even if there is no evidence that they were selling or distributing the drugs. In some cases, drug trafficking charges may be filed against an individual who is caught in possession of a smaller quantity of drugs if there is evidence that they were involved in the sale or distribution of drugs.

State vs. Federal Drug Trafficking Charges

Drug trafficking can be charged at the state or federal level. The specific charges you face will depend on the type and quantity of drugs involved, as well as other factors. In general, federal drug trafficking charges are more serious and carry harsher penalties than state charges.

Some of the factors that can lead to federal drug trafficking charges include:

  • Transporting drugs across state lines
  • Transporting drugs into the United States from another country
