NJ BURLINGTON COUNTY MDMA, MOLLY, ECSTACY CHARGES

Mount Holly Criminal Defense Firm: Our Former County Prosecutors Can Defend Your Burlington County Criminal Charge for Possession or Distribution of Ecstasy, Molly or MDMA

Ecstasy, MDMA, and Molly are all street names for the controlled dangerous substance (CDS) methylenedioxymethamphetamine. It is a popular drug among young adults in New Jersey because the psychoactive substance produces euphoric effects that enhance mind-altering experiences. However, possessing or distributing any amount of this CDS in Burlington County is illegal and carries significant legal implications.

If you face arrest concerning Ecstasy, MDMA, or Molly in Burlington County, your case will end up in the Superior Court of Mount Holly. Here at Law Offices of Todd Spodek, our team of criminal defense lawyers has over two centuries of combined experience defending clients faced with drug charges in Burlington County. Ten lawyers make up our team of former prosecutors who use their unique perspective to achieve the possible outcome for every client.

Possession or Distribution Charges Regarding MDMA/Ecstasy/Molly

The penalties for possessing any form (MDMA/Ecstasy/Molly) of controlled dangerous substances are evident regardless of intent or quantity involved since they have no acceptable medical use as regulated by N.J.S.A. 2C:35-10.

If someone possesses CDS methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA), aka “Molly” intentionally without an intent to distribute, it is a third-degree crime punishable by:

– A fine not exceeding $35,000.
– A prison sentence ranging from 3 – 5 years.
– Mandatory suspension of driver’s license for 6 -24 months.

On the other hand, If someone intends to sell/distribute MDMA in a school zone or public park located within Bordentown, Mount Holly Pemberton Medford Delran, or any other local municipality in Burlington County creates more severe charges with greater penalties. Selling less than 0.5 ounces leads to third-degree crime with severe penalties similar to that of a simple possession offense except for the maximum fine increases to $75,000.

Possessing between 1/2 ounce and less than five ounces is punishable by a second-degree crime. A fine of up to $150,000 and up to ten years in prison comes with this charge. However, charges are much more critical when someone distributes or possesses more than five ounces of MDMA. These crimes proportionately result in more drastic penalties, with those caught facing the following:

– A first-degree distribution penalty.
– Up to $500,000 in fines.
– Up to 20 years imprisonment.
– Mandatory minimum sentence of at least one-third of the imposed period and half of the jail term without an opportunity for parole.
