Information About OxyContin and Cocaine
OxyContin is an oral medication of single-ingredient oxycodone, which is used medically as a pain reliever. It, however, has found its niche in the illegal, recreational circle; law enforcement have reported a steady rise in the illicit use of this drug since the late 1990s where it began in rural areas. Often, it is procured through such fraudulent practices as doctor shopping and pharmacy theft.
Cocaine, on the other hand, is taken from the coca plant and is central nervous system stimulant. It is known to be highly addictive and is considered to be one of the most highly used illegal drugs in the country, beat only by
marijuana. Cocaine is also considered to be a youthful drug as it is highly popular among partying college students. Due to the widespread use of both of these drugs, prosecutors are ruthless in their attempt to punish. These zealous efforts, however, can often violate the rights of the alleged criminals when they step over the line. You should not have to suffer from such actions. Do not hesitate to secure the legal representation of an aggressive drug crime lawyer to help you in this complex and complicated case.
Both OxyContin and cocaine are legally classified as Class B controlled substances. Therefore, drug crimes related to them such as possession and distribution carry with them extreme and severe penalties. Convictions carry with them penalties that could range up to ten years imprisoned in a state prison and a monetary fine up to $10,000, depending on the individual circumstances of the crime.
