What Is Drug Distribution?

Drug distribution involves the sale, transportation, or delivery of a controlled substance. This crime is also commonly referred to as drug trafficking, though the two terms are not entirely interchangeable.

Drug distribution can be charged as a federal or state crime. Federal courts handle the most serious cases, while state courts handle most of the drug distribution cases in the country.

What Are the Penalties for Drug Distribution in Florida?

Penalties for drug distribution depend on several factors, including the type and quantity of the controlled substance and whether you have prior drug convictions on your record. In general, these charges are felonies, and a conviction can result in prison time, fines, and other severe penalties.

What Is the Difference Between Drug Trafficking and Drug Distribution?

Drug trafficking and drug distribution are similar terms, but they are not the same thing. Drug distribution is the sale, transportation, or delivery of a controlled substance. Trafficking is a more serious crime that involves the movement of drugs across state or national border.

Drug trafficking is a federal crime, and the penalties for a conviction are even more severe than they are for drug distribution. If you are charged with drug trafficking, it is vital that you retain the services of a skilled drug distribution defense attorney with experience in federal court.
