Drug use in America has skyrocketed. Some attribute it to the drug companies reintroducing the public to opioids and other horribly addictive drugs that will make the most pious person turn into a full blown addict.
Along with an addiction comes a physical and psychological need to get more... By any means necessary. Often, crime is the choice. When deep enough in the throws of addiction, one may or may not be able to decipher right from wrong. Crime then becomes not an option but an only resort.
There are repercussions for breaking the law, but theres also a distinction between a career criminal and a drug addict. The law unfortunately doesn't make that distinction. Which is why sentence reform is needed. The war on drugs was about as successful as the Vietnam War. A lot of people have died and no progress has been made.
If you or someone you know has been charged with drug possession, use, abuse, sales, etc. Give us a call today. The justice system doesn't care about your reasoning for committing crime, but we do.
