What is Drug Trafficking Under 720 ILCS 570/407?

Drug trafficking means large-scale drug distribution based on quantity thresholds or interstate activity. This is the most serious drug offense involving organized distribution networks and massive drug quantities.

Unlike smaller drug cases, trafficking cases involve complex federal and state evidence including wiretaps, financial records, and multi-jurisdictional investigations. However, these procedures may contain technical flaws and constitutional violations that experienced defense attorneys can challenge to win cases.

The key to defending drug trafficking charges lies in attacking the reliability of investigation procedures and constitutional violations during arrest.
