Possession with Intent to Distribute in Georgia - Call (770) 884-4708
Aggravated Charges of Possession in Atlanta
When it comes to possessing an illegal drug, there is a significant difference between simple possession and possession with intent to distribute (PWID). Possession is already a felony under Official Code of Georgia Annotated § 16-13-30 and can land you in prison for 1 - 15 years. PWID is a much more serious drug crime and can result in a prison sentence of 5 - 30 years. "Distribute" is defined in O.C.G.A. § 16-13-21 as "to deliver a controlled substance, other than by administering or dispensing it."
In order for you to be convicted of PWID, it must be proven that you not only were in possession of a controlled substance but also that you intended to deliver it to another person. This could simply mean that you meant to hand it over to someone else, or it could mean that you intended to load it into a vehicle and drive it to another location.
By hiring an Atlanta drug defense attorney as soon as possible, you can avoid incrimination and build a strong case to prove that you had no intention of distributing the drugs. You may also be able to avoid a conviction for possession at all.
