Edmonds Drug Sales Penalties

Under state law, selling or delivering drugs is a felony, with sentences ranging from five to ten years in state prison and fines between $10,000 and $100,000 plus $50 more for each gram in excess of two kilograms. The quantity of drugs involved in your case will play a major factor in the sentence you could receive if convicted, in addition to the specific type of drug, whether it is cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine or marijuana. A possession charge will often be increased to possession with intent to deliver when the suspect is arrested with larger quantities of drugs than would be normal for individual use.

Beyond the term of your sentence, you would also end up with a criminal record which could follow you for several years into the future.
