What is Possession with Intent to Deliver Under 720 ILCS 570/405.2?

Possession with intent to deliver means having drugs with evidence showing intent to sell or distribute. This includes large quantities, packaging materials, scales, or other evidence of distribution activity.

Unlike simple possession cases, intent cases involve complex circumstantial evidence including quantity analysis, packaging evidence, and communication records. However, these procedures may contain technical flaws and constitutional violations that experienced defense attorneys can challenge to win cases.

The key to defending possession with intent charges lies in attacking the reliability of intent evidence and constitutional violations during arrest.
