1. The client who came to a Suwon narcotics attorney

수원마약변호사

The client who came to a Suwon narcotics attorney sought to work with an experienced attorney to minimize the disadvantages in a narcotics case, and so the client visited the narcotics attorney at the Suwon office and requested cooperation.

How the client came to consult a Suwon narcotics attorney

The account of the client who urgently sought the attorney's assistance is as follows.

The client decided to purchase methamphetamine from a drug seller who operated a Telegram drug channel.

He purchased the drugs by receiving, via Telegram from an unidentified seller, the location of the “drop” and retrieving the methamphetamine behind a building.

The client even administered the purchased methamphetamine by dissolving it in water and drinking it.

Drug-related crimes have the potential to cause serious harm to society as a whole, so the courts punish them severely.

🔗Drug Administration and Possession The client sought assistance to minimize the disadvantages by working through the case with the attorney and to conclude the matter with a suspended sentence.

2. Statutes related to the case explained by a Suwon narcotics attorney

Under Article 60 (Penal Provisions) of the Narcotics Control Act, a person who commits any of the following acts may be punished by imprisonment for up to 10 years or a fine of up to 100 million won.

▶ A person who illegally trades in, arranges, receives, possesses, owns, uses, manages, dispenses, administers, or provides psychotropic drugs

▶ A person who issues a prescription listing psychotropic drugs

In other words, violating the law concerning psychotropic drugs can result in very severe punishment, so caution is required.

3. The Suwon narcotics attorney's assistance

We formed a task force of 3 to 20 specialists, including a narcotics specialist attorney and the Digital Forensics Group, to systematically analyze the case.

We prepared a customized response suited to the client's situation and argued the following while requesting leniency for the client.

① ADHD Symptoms

The client did not administer drugs for the purpose of mere curiosity or pleasure.

The client, who had been suffering from symptoms of ADHD, had heard somewhere that the components of methamphetamine were helpful in treatment and wanted to check whether they would have an effect in improving the symptoms.

The client emphasized that the client came to commit the offense in this case in the course of making efforts, in the client's own way, to treat the client's mental illness.

② Confession and Remorse

Although the client took the drug for the purpose of treatment, the fact that this constituted an unlawful act was undeniable, and so the client confessed to the entire offense from the investigation stage.

The client emphasized that he was firmly resolved never to commit the same wrong again and that he was making efforts to fundamentally treat his mental illness.

③ Low Likelihood of Reoffending

When the client took the purchased drug, far from the symptoms improving, the client only felt nauseous and dizzy, and came to realize that it was of no help whatsoever.

Accordingly, the client emphasized that the client has no thought whatsoever of wanting to use drugs again, and that there is no possibility of reoffending at all.

4. The court's determination on the Suwon narcotics attorney's arguments

The court, accepting the arguments of the Suwon narcotics attorney, rendered the following judgment: ‘The defendant shall be sentenced to ten months of imprisonment. However, the execution of the above sentence shall be suspended for three years from the date this judgment becomes final.’
