What is Drug Conspiracy Under 720 ILCS 570/401.1(b)?

Drug conspiracy means planning or agreeing to commit drug crimes with others. This includes any agreement to manufacture, deliver, or possess drugs, even if the underlying crime never occurs.

Unlike individual drug cases, conspiracy cases involve complex evidence including wiretap recordings, confidential informant testimony, and co-conspirator statements. However, these procedures may contain technical flaws and constitutional violations that experienced defense attorneys can challenge to win cases.

The key to defending drug conspiracy charges lies in attacking the reliability of conspiracy evidence and constitutional violations during investigation.
