Understanding Drug Crime Charges in Texas
A drug crime encompasses a range of offenses involving illicit drugs and controlled substances. These offenses involve substances like heroin, cocaine, methamphetamine, MDMA (ecstasy), LSD, morphine, oxycodone, marijuana, and more. In Texas, drugs are categorized into five “schedules” based on their potential for abuse and medical value. Schedule I drugs are highly addictive with no accepted medical use, while Schedule V drugs have a low potential for addiction and are recognized for medical use.
Common Types of Drug Crimes
- Drug Possession: This charge arises when you are found in possession of a small quantity of a controlled substance for personal use.
- Drug Possession with Intent to Distribute: If you are found with a significant quantity of drugs, along with items like cash, baggies, and a weight scale, you may be charged with possession with intent to distribute.
- Drug Sale and Distribution: Also referred to as "drug dealing," this offense involves the illegal sale of drugs, often on a smaller scale.
- Drug Trafficking: Drug trafficking is a more significant operation involving the sale, transport, and importation of illegal narcotics. It typically involves a substantial quantity of drugs.
- Drug Manufacturing or Cultivation: This offense pertains to the production of illegal drugs.
