Meth Manufacturing Criminal Defense Attorney – Arizona
Intercity Meth Operations
For a long time, the manufacture of methamphetamine (more commonly known as “meth”) was conducted in rural areas. The telltale odor as well as the danger in manufacturing this drug made the countryside more desirable for those who engaged in this type of operation.
But more recently in large cities around the country, Phoenix included, meth operations have found a home. Being charged with manufacturing or selling meth is an extremely serious crime that has equally serious penalties.
Serious Charges – Serious Defense
Drug crimes involving meth have their own sentencing categories. Often, the penalties associated with convictions for drug crimes double if the narcotic is meth. Not unlike drug crimes cases involving firearms, firearms cases must be handled carefully – aggressively.
Law enforcement often works its way up the chain of command observing the places a meth user goes to obtain meth. After questioning the user about where he or she obtained the illegal substance, that person may ultimately become a confidential informant. It is important to obtain such information and ultimately that the identity of this individual is disclosed to challenge the validity and truthfulness of the information that could ultimately lead to your arrest. No matter what level you fall within this chain – from meth use to meth production – if law enforcement has not followed proper procedure, you may be able to minimize the impact of the charges against you.
