The sale of drugs, whether they are street drugs or illegally obtained prescription medications, is a crime in Delaware. Selling drugs is a felony in Delaware and brings with it very severe consequences.
A drug crime arrest in Delaware will be much more severe if you are caught selling them to a minor (anyone under the age of 16). If you have been charged with selling drugs to minors in Delaware, you need to speak with a Delaware Drug Defense Lawyer.
For first offenses, selling drugs to minors is charged as a felony. The type of drug will depend on what class of felony you are charged with. Each conviction carries with it a 1-year mandatory prison sentence. Subsequent offenses bring about more severe consequences.
If you are also a minor and caught selling drugs to minors, you can be charged as an adult. You still face very serious charges and prison sentences. Your top priority should be consulting with an experienced Delaware Drug Crime Lawyer.
How A Delaware Drug Lawyer Can Help You
If you are ultimately convicted of selling drugs to a minor in Delaware, you will be facing mandatory jail time, fines, fees and court costs. The severity of the sentencing is directly related to the type of drug you were selling and your previous criminal history.
It is important to keep in mind that you have rights, and they need to be protected. Retaining Mr. Phillips as your attorney will ensure that they are protected and that you are treated fairly in court.
