Types of Drug Crimes in Texas
Drug offenses cover a lot of territory in the criminal code, both here in Texas and at the federal level. The defendant can be someone accused of running a cartel with links to overseas syndicates; it can be someone charged with having a small bag of white powder in their glove compartment, or the charges could fall anywhere in between. Generally speaking, the types of drug crimes fall into these categories…
Drug Manufacturing
Drug manufacturing includes the actual act of making illegal drugs. It can also be extended to cover anyone who sells the chemicals and equipment necessary for production. The latter case presumes it can be proven that the person making the sale knew (or had credible reason to know) what the real intent of the purchase was. But anyone involved, at any step in the process of producing illegal drugs, can be charged with drug manufacturing and cultivation.
Drug Trafficking
Trafficking is the legal terminology for the selling of drugs. This can cover everyone from the so-called “street dealer” to the person sitting in a plush office and overseeing billions of dollars worth of illegal transactions.
Drug Possession
This one is straightforward–it means the accused person had illegal drugs on them. The reason for possession doesn’t matter.
Possession with Intent to Sell
Here is where we get to where charges of drug possession enter a grayer area. Do prosecutors believe the accused had them for the purpose of selling them? Is there evidence to support that belief? This is no small thing because the sentence for the sale of drugs will be more severe than simply using them. A key criteria prosecutors look at is the quantity of drugs possessed–a large quantity is indicative of possible intent to sell.
