Caught With Drug Paraphernalia? Let Us Advise You.

User-specific drug paraphernalia are items used by drug users to conceal or ingest drugs. Pipes made specifically for smoking drugs, roach clips (holds the butt of the joint) and syringes for injecting drugs are all examples of drug paraphernalia. Everyday items may also be deemed drug paraphernalia. Mirrors, rolled up currency, razor blades and bent spoons have all been used to convict people under paraphernalia laws, whether or not they contain residue of illegal drugs.

Dealer-specific drug paraphernalia products are used for distribution of drugs such as scales, vials and plastic baggies. Sales of paraphernalia is a quarter of a billion-dollar industry, and authorities are cracking down on Internet sales and local retail tobacco/head shops that sell items for cultivating marijuana (grow lights, hydroponic kits, etc.) and products that are claimed to cleanse the body of evidence of drug use.

The type of drug paraphernalia you are accused of possessing will affect your punishment: type of drug, amount and your intent will all be taken into consideration when establishing which guidelines will affect you. A conviction may affect your schooling, work and/or home life.
