“Drug crime” is a term used to describe any number of offenses that involve a controlled substance. Drug crimes can fall into a few different categories, depending on what the person charged with the crime intended to do with the drugs that are found on him at the time of arrest.
For example, a person who gets caught in possession of a drug but only intended to use it, may receive a lighter sentence if convicted than someone who possessed the drug with the intent to sell.
New York is widely considered to have some of the toughest laws against drug crimes in the United States. The first step to defending yourself in a New York drug case is to have a clear understanding of what New York defines as a controlled substance.
Under New York law, the term controlled substance includes both legal and illegal drugs.
However, a legal drug, if possessed without a prescription, may be considered illegal as well. Although New York is less harsh on those who possess a controlled substance without the intent to sell, such a situation can still be considered a felony that carries a 1-30 year jail sentence.
