Drug Trafficking in the U.S.
Drug trafficking consists of transporting large quantities of illegal drugs or controlled substances in order to sell, distribute, or deliver them. Illegal drugs and controlled substances include marijuana, cocaine, heroin, LSD, methamphetamines, opiates, PCP, MDMA (Ecstasy), and other addictive and harmful narcotics. Drug trafficking is considered an illegal commercial activity and is charged and prosecuted as a felony. Conviction of drug trafficking crimes includes lengthy prison sentences, huge financial penalties, and other court-mandated penalties. Prior convictions, drug trafficking within 3 miles of a school zone, or corruption of a minor will involve enhanced penalties.
