Conspiracy and Drug Possession Charges Levied

|

Nebraska residents who are arrested and charged with serious drug offenses often find the experience confusing and even scary even if they have been arrested before. The process can seem to come out of nowhere and people have good reason to wonder what will happen to them and how or if they will be able to get a proper defense. Today, there are many defendants who may be wondering just these types of things.

An effort that involved local and state law enforcement and authorities from Nebraska, Colorado and Kansas as well as federal authorities has resulted in the arrest of many people. The defendants are accused of a variety of charges, many centering around methampetamine. One person who has been arrested is confirmed to be from Nebraska while either others are from Colorado.

The charges include conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine, conspiracy to commit money laundering and possession with the intent to distribute methamphetamines. The potential consequences each defendant may face is not known. At the time that many of the arrests were made, it is reported that authorities located some money, ammunition and weapons but whether or not any charges were filed related to the weapons is not known.

After a criminal arrest and charge for drug crimes and other related offenses, defendants in Nebraska may be able to learn about the defense process and their options for how to best navigate the criminal justice system by talking with an experienced criminal defense lawyer.
