I would like to know in detail about drug offender sentencing. Please provide an answer.

Hello. My child has been bullied at school. As a parent, it breaks my heart that I didn't know my child was going through this... We reported the school violence, of course, and the school violence committee is coming up. But the emotional wound on my child is severe... I really want the perpetrator to face criminal punishment too. Can I file a criminal school violence complaint even if the school violence committee is held?

Hello, this is a marijuana attorney. A drug offender refers to a person who has administered or possessed narcotics, psychotropic drugs, etc.

If you possess narcotics falling under category (a), such as methamphetamine, heroin, and cocaine, you will be sentenced to imprisonment of 5 years or more.

Next, if you possess narcotics falling under category (b), such as fentanyl, morphine, and methadone, you will be sentenced to imprisonment of 3 years or more.

Lastly, if you possess narcotics falling under category (c), such as zolpidem and etizolam, you may be sentenced to imprisonment of 1 year or more.

In addition, if you sell narcotics, you may be sentenced to imprisonment of 5 years or more or life imprisonment.

In the case of drug offender sentencing, if there are special considerations regarding the participation in the crime or the motive for the crime, if it is a one-time act, or if you participated passively in the crime, you may receive a reduction.

Conversely, if you have a previous record of drug crimes or were caught using drugs again during a suspended sentence period, the drug offender sentencing may become heavier.

Even if it started by mistake or simple curiosity, it can lead to severe criminal punishment. It is very important to accurately analyze the case with a marijuana attorney and respond systematically.
