Are There Mandatory Minimum Sentences for Trafficking Narcotics in Florida?
Last year, I represented a client accused of trafficking cocaine, with a major concern being the mandatory minimum sentence. This means any plea or verdict of guilty mandates a minimum incarceration period. Trafficking charges apply to various substances, like cannabis, leading to a minimum of three years for certain quantities. Higher amounts of drugs can result in life imprisonment. The principle is simple: the more you possess, the harsher the penalty. If you’re facing trafficking charges in Florida, please reach out to us.
