Are There Defenses to Drug Possession Charges?

Unfortunately, prosecutors and judges come down hard on drug alleged crime offenders and oftentimes exacerbate a minor concern to something much larger. This generally means that what would generally be considered a minor offense is punished more harshly than it should be. Your rights and freedoms are too important to be taken from you by an overzealous prosecutor.

Thankfully there are defenses that can be used on your behalf:

• Drug evidence was obtained through unlawful search and seizure
• Drugs accused of being yours actually belong to someone else
• Substance in your possession is not actually a controlled substance
• Alleged drug evidence is missing and cannot be used in trial
• Forced into drug possession over duress or coercion

Depending on the circumstances surrounding your arrest and detention, any kind of drug possession defenses can apply. The best way to learn about your rights is by speaking with a criminal lawyer experienced in the defense of drug crimes.
