Re: Federal Drug conviction
You need a lawyer immediately. You cannot do this on your own, as the potential consequences for you are severe. Generally, possession of cocaine is a felony.
Crack cocaine or powdered cocaine? If convicted, there are disparities in the sentencing.
An attorney can review the stop, and your proximity to the drug and advise you of your options regarding contesting the charge and negotiating a plea to the charge.
