Accused of a drug crime involving cocaine?

One of the most widely used illegal substances in the U.S. is cocaine, second only to marijuana. This drug is used recreationally as a party drug by millions of Americans. In fact, it is estimated that one in four between the ages of twenty-six and thirty-four have used cocaine. Cocaine works by stimulating the nervous system through injection into the bloodstream, through smoking, or snorting it through the nostrils. Commonly referred to as coke, snow, flake, and blow, cocaine gives users a sense of energy and elation.

The dangers of cocaine stem from the negative effects it has on the body. For example, body temperature rises, the heart rate increases, and blood pressure also rises. Over time, those who use cocaine may be more susceptible to heart attacks, strokes, and, in some cases, sudden death. Due to the negative health effects and other factors, cocaine use is illegal is most parts of the world. Punishments for possession, distribution, sale, and trafficking are harsh and can result in jail time and heavy fines.
