Drug Paraphernalia in Olathe
Drug Crimes for Possession or Sale of Paraphernalia
When considering
drug crimes, many people simply assume it relates strictly to the drugs themselves,
whether they are
marijuana or
methamphetamines. There are, however, many intricate drug laws that branch out much further
than that. For example, in Kansas recently there has been a focus on the
possession and sale of drug paraphernalia and other drug accessories.
The state has recognized drug paraphernalia to be such items as glass/metal
pipes, bongs, water pipes, scales, and other similar articles.
If you are found to be selling drug paraphernalia, with the intention of
the item to be used to either consume or ingest illegal drugs, you can
face severe penalties such as extended time incarcerated, and steep monetary
fines. The severity of the punishment will depend on many different factors
in the individual case, including things such as place sold, amount sold,
and age of the person sold to. On the other hand, if you are found to
be in possession of marijuana paraphernalia for personal use, you will
face a misdemeanor crime that can carry fives up to $2,500 and a year
imprisoned.
