Anyone who possesses an illegal drug with intent to sell or deliver can face felony charges and serious potential penalties. Most often, intent is proved by the amount of drugs possessed – if a person is found in possession of a larger amount than could be for personal consumption, intent to sell or deliver is likely. In other cases, communications about selling or delivering drugs, or putting drugs in a vehicle or other mode of transportation, can be used as proof of intent to sell or deliver.
