Re: Trafficking heroin
He needs to go over his case with a lawyer, in detail.
: Trafficking heroin
There is some new case law involving this matter. The short answer is yes, he can be charged.
He should talk to no one, and certainly not post a detailed description on the internet.
The next person he should and must speak to is an attorney to analyze the case, and discuss your options.
If he seeks further information or representation, you can call my office.
If he wants to provide me with more essential information about the situation, or contact me, then I can provide me with the necessary details, so that I can evaluate what is going on, and give you my thoughts.
If you would like to consult with me, call me at my office.
