Drug Manufacturing

Innocent until Proven Guilty

Drug manufacturing charges can affect anyone involved in the production or cultivation of any illegal narcotics. However, in order to be charged with this offense, a person does not have to be involved in the process itself. If someone assists another in obtaining certain materials needed to manufacture illegal narcotics, then that can be the basis for a manufacturing or distribution charge.This includes items such as marijuana seeds, grow lights, or other cultivating supplies used in the production of marijuana. Also, being in possession of certain amounts of drugs with pseudoephedrine as the main ingredient (i.e., methamphetamine, cold medication, or allergy medication), can result in drug manufacturing charges. When facing any type of drug-manufacturing charges, obtaining an experienced lawyer is absolutely essential.

Penalties for Drug Manufacturing

The penalties for drug manufacturing can range from probation to life in prison, depending upon the degree of the offense. Determining the degree of criminality is based on the acts committed and the amount of the drug possessed. For instance, if someone is found with more than one ounce but less than five pounds of cocaine, along with scales and bags, then they can be charged with a felony that results in a mandatory minimum three-year prison sentence.
