Types of Drug Sale Charges

Selling illegal drugs is a crime with very serious penalties. A drug sales conviction can have a heavy impact on an individual's life and future prospects regardless of immediate penalties.

Some of the most heavily penalized drug sales charges are for the dealing of cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine, ecstasy, LSD and PCP though most types of drugs will result in felony charges. The sale of prescription drugs such as Xanax, Valium, Ritalin or Oxycontin also attract very serious penalties and certainly cannot be taken lightly.
