Ventura Drug Crime Attorney
Drug Sales & Distribution Charges
While drug possession may be a misdemeanor under some circumstances, drug sales and distribution are felonies that come with harsh penalties. It is a felony to sell or distribute any controlled substance or prescription drug without a license to do so. If the charge involves distributing to minors, using minors to sell drugs, or if you are arrested near a school there can be larger fines in addition to a longer prison sentence.
