Loitering for the Purpose of Purchase or Sale
Just hanging out in areas where drugs are being sold can lead to an arrest. In most cases it takes more than just being in the wrong place at the wrong time but these arrests happen with a great deal of frequency.
This kind of case can be a challenge for the prosecutor to prove and a good reason to have a defense lawyer who is able to remind him of that.
Also, because of lesser penalties in this type of case, this is the kind of charge that a case of possession or even possession for sale might be reduced, too. |
