Synthetic Cannabinoids in Camden County NJ: Charges, Types, and Penalties
Being charged for manufacturing, distributing, possessing with intent to distribute or even mere possession of synthetic marijuana has a far-reaching impact on your life. In New Jersey’s Camden County, this act was criminalized by the state legislature in 2013 – hence any caught with any amount of synthetic cannabinoids will face second-, third-, or fourth-degree charges based on the quantity involved. The Law Offices of Todd Spodek is here to help defend you during these intricate legal proceedings.
Penalties for Synthetic Cannabinoids in Camden County NJ
Unlike regular marijuana, possessing synthetic cannabinoids is considered a felony that could lead to hefty penalties. Synthetic cannabinoid possession with intent to distribute falls under a second-degree crime that attracts fines of up to $150,000 and imprisonment lasting between 5-10 years if the amount exceeds one ounce. The offense can be downgraded to a third degree charge when the quantity sold or distributed is less than one ounce – resulting in fines of up to $15,000 and between three-five years imprisonment.
For personal possession exceeding an ounce of synthetic cannabinoids, it is a second-degree crime that attracts heavy fines and jail time. Owning less than an ounce warrants fourth-degree charges resulting in fines of up to $10,000 and jail time extending up to 18 months.
