Common Drug Crime Penalties
When an individual under the age of 18 is accused of committing a crime related to the sale, possession, or use of narcotics or prescription drugs, it is possible they will be punished with the following:
- Fines, paid to the court and possibly even to others impacted by the act in question
- Probationary terms, such as curfew, community service requirements, or inability to drive
- Time in a juvenile correction facility or even incarceration
If a youth is accused of committing a drug related crime, it is important to note that the process of trying him or her for that crime can be very different from the methods used for adults.
