Ecstasy
Arrested on ecstasy charges?
Since the late 1980's, ecstasy has become widespread in Long Island. It is popular as a party drug and is broadly used at raves and in the club scene. Due to the fact that it carries a high potential for abuse and has no recognized medical application , the Federal Government classifies ecstasy, also known as MDMA, E, X, or XTC, in Schedule I of the Controlled Substances Act. When you have been arrested for an ecstasy related drug crime, you face a possible sentence ranging from up to a year in jail for possession to a term of several years in prison for a more serious offense such as sales, manufacturing or trafficking.
A conviction for an ecstasy offense could have a drastic effect on your future, and may cost you everything you have achieved in life. In addition to being placed behind bars and being given a stiff fine, you would also have a criminal record, which might disqualify you from employment at certain companies and could make it difficult for you to find housing.
