A designer drug is any illicit narcotic that mimics the chemical structure of a controlled substance. While many designer drugs quickly become listed on a controlled narcotic schedule, like PCP and GHB, other analog substances can become illegal almost immediately after they are determined to be dangerous, and even though they may not appear in written law, you can be prosecuted for using, possessing, or distributing these substances.
If a substance closely mimics the chemical makeup of a narcotic listed in Schedule 1, Schedule 2, Schedule 3, Schedule 4, or Schedule 5, persons accused of possessing that drug can face similar penalties to those normally matched to each schedule. This could include serious jail time, fines, a criminal record, driver’s license suspension, and more. By partnering with an experienced defense attorney early on in the criminal defense process, you can ensure you fully protect yourself throughout every stage of your case.
If convicted of possessing a designer drug in Muskegon with intent to sell or deliver, you could be convicted of a felony offense. For many designer drugs, the maximum sentence you can face is up to 15 years behind bars and a fine of $250,000, along with other criminal and administrative penalties.
If, however, the analogue you are accused of possessing with intent is listed in a higher schedule by the Michigan Public Health Code, you could face up to life in prison, along with fines of a million dollars or more. It is crucial that you contact an attorney and find out more about how Michigan law may affect your designer drug possession case.
