Here is a quick breakdown of some of the banned substances and their potential sentences for possession:

 

  • Cocaine: If arrested with under 9 grams of cocaine or 750 mg of cocaine base then this can be prosecuted as a possession charge. For a first-time offense, this could mean up to a year imprisonment and over $2,000 in fines. If you have a criminal record then the penalties can be much harsher.
