Rising Drug Charges

The number of people being charged with drug crimes has been on the increase since 1980. Illegal possession of prescription medications, heroin, and cocaine trafficking, and other drug-related charges have increased every year since 1980. There is little incentive for law enforcement officials and politicians to reconsider drug sentencing guidelines or drug laws; the country remains supportive of “tough-on-crime” stances even when those stances lead to an unfair justice system.

Penalties for Drug Crimes Crimes

How Our Birmingham Drug Crime Lawyer Can Help You

The good news for a person charged with a drug crime in Alabama is that the law offers you a number of potential protections. These include defenses related to the manner in which the police came to find the drugs that you are alleged to have possessed or distributed.

Drug cases often come down to questions about whether the police were authorized under the law to search you, your car, or your home.

That authorization depends on whether:

• They had a warrant
• Other evidence gave them a reasonable suspicion or probable cause to believe a crime was being committed
• Other exigent circumstances were involved

The bottom line is that a person facing a drug charge in Alabama should seek the counsel of a seasoned Birmingham criminal defense lawyer to explore these and other issues.
