Massachusetts Drug Trafficking Laws

Under M.G.L. c. 94C, Β§Β§32E(a)-(c), trafficking is determined by the weight of the drugs in your possession, not your intent to distribute. Penalties escalate based on drug type and quantity:

Heroin or Fentanyl (Class A):
πŸ”Ή 18–36g β†’ 3.5 years minimum
πŸ”Ή 36–100g β†’ 5 years minimum
πŸ”Ή 100–200g β†’ 10 years minimum
πŸ”Ή Over 200g β†’ 15 years minimum

Cocaine (Class B):
πŸ”Ή 18–28g β†’ 2 years minimum
πŸ”Ή 28–100g β†’ 5 years minimum
πŸ”Ή Over 200g β†’ 10 years minimum

Methamphetamine or Prescription Pills (Class C):
πŸ”Ή Severe penalties based on dosage and quantity

Intent to distribute can be inferred from packaging or paraphernalia. Additional consequences include:

πŸš— Loss of driver's license
πŸŽ“ Loss of federal student aid
πŸ’° Seizure of assets (cash, vehicles, electronics)
πŸ›‚ Immigration risks for non-citizens

Worcester District Court

Most trafficking cases start in Worcester District Court, where arraignment, bail hearings, and preliminary motions take place. Serious felony-level cases are typically transferred ("bound over") to Worcester Superior Court.
