Utah prosecutors are avid about getting you convicted for a drug offense and they show little mercy.  If you have been accused of violating a drug law you can bet that the state wants to see you in jail.  That is why hiring a dedicated and aggressive Utah Drug Crime Attorney such as those at Salcido Law Firm is so important.

Laws in Utah surrounding illicit drugs are harsh and range from Class B misdemeanors all the way up to first degree felonies and each subsequent conviction tends to increase the sentence by one degree.  Furthermore, special rules apply which result in more stringent sentences if a drug crime was committed on, in, or around various types of premises such as schools, libraries, and even movie theaters.

Another issue that you have to look out for with Utah drug prosecutions is that a distribution charge is generally always tagged on to other drug charges even if there is no evidence of distribution.  For example, if you had 10 joints in your pocket, in addition to being charged with possession you would also likely be charged with distribution simply because the officer would not expect that you alone could smoke that much so you must have intended to distribute.  That quickly takes you into the drug dealer realm of the law where the consequences become more severe.
