Legal Question in Criminal Law in Texas

Re: eating evidence

Based on what you have written, it appears that the alleged defendant is being charged with violating section 37.09 of the Texas Penal Code. Generally, the severity of the possession charge is based on the amount of the drugs. The tampering charge will carry more punishment as it is a 3rd degree felony (2 - 10 yrs in state jail with option fine up to $10,000). If my local criminal defense law firm can assist you with this legal issue or any other legal matter, please contact my paralegal Tina ([email protected]) to arrange for an initial consultation.
