Major San Gabriel Drug Crime

Posted on: August 18, 2010 at 5:25 p.m.

Drug offenses and drug crimes can lead to years in prison, serious fines, years of probation and much more. Normally, drug crimes defended by a Los Angeles Criminal Defense Attorney are lower level misdemeanors, or even minor felonies. These crimes include possession, sales, etc. These crimes are serious and can carry heavy sentences, however a good lawyer can help deal with such charges in a fairly simply way. Major drug crimes however, such as the one in San Gabriel, can lead to decades in prison and could be charged as federal crimes.

Sheriff's in San Gabriel seized roughly 1,600 marijuana plants with an estimated value of $4 million. The plants were growing in three homes in the San Gabriel Valley and seven suspects were detained by detectives after the raid. The detectives ran a two month investigation of the houses, which were outfitted with sophisticated growing equipment. Law enforcement officials also seized several firearms from the residences.

Such severe drug crimes can lead to decades in prison. Minor offenses can garner weeks or months in jail, and possibly even thousands of dollars in fines. But a drug crime of this magnitude could lead to serious felony charges, and even worse.

In such a major drug crime case, a skilled Los Angeles Criminal Defense Attorney will have to possess knowledge of local marijuana laws, chemistry, the value of specific plants, etc. The prosecution will try to throw the book at anyone charged in such a case, hoping to make an example of the people involved, as well as to make a name for themselves.
