Re: ectasy possesion

In Colorado, it is a class 3 felony to possess over a gram and a class 6 felony under a gram on a first offense. Subsequent offenses are worse.

F3 carries a presumptive 4-12 year prison sentence with 5 years of parole, F6 12-18 months with 1 year of parole.

Many judges will give probation to first time offenders and some second offenders. If quantities are low and there are no priors of any kind, a misdemeanor may be available through a plea bargain.

As with all crimes, the political climate does affect the plea offers and sentences.
