What they found isn't always what they prove.
Drugs were found. The case is already proven. That's where the accusation begins.
What was found? How much was involved? What can actually be proven? That's where cases break.
Whether the allegation is possession, transportation, sales, trafficking, or manufacturing, the question is the same: what can actually be proven?
Who possessed them? Proximity alone is not definitive proof.
Who knew what was being transported? Movement alone does not establish knowledge or intent.
What evidence supports an intent to sell? Allegations of selling drugs are not the same as proof.
Who was actually involved? Presence alone does not establish guilt.
Common Arizona drug charges. Arizona drug cases often involve allegations under: A.R.S. § 13-3407 (Dangerous Drugs), A.R.S. § 13-3408 (Narcotic Drugs), A.R.S. § 13-3405 (Marijuana), A.R.S. § 13-3401 (Definitions), A.R.S. § 13-3415 (Drug Paraphernalia). The statute only identifies the charge, not the State's burden of proof.
