Nebraska Drug Laws

In Nebraska, it is illegal to possess and sell drugs. The Nebraska Legislature says that these drug crimes are considered felonies. The severity of the penalty usually depends on the amount of a substance a person possesses and the particular drug.

A charge of drug possession means that people intentionally acquired an illegal substance and kept it at their home or on their person. Sometimes someone might be charged with possession if they knew drugs were in a home but did not remove them. In some situations, law enforcement may charge people with possession if they should have realized that a substance was illegal. Additionally, someone may be charged with possession with the intent to distribute. This means that law enforcement usually needs to demonstrate that a person has the materials necessary to distribute drugs and the substance.
