Drug sale and distribution-related crimes in Arizona and under federal law are serious offenses
carrying severe penalties, including lengthy prison sentences and substantial fines. Both Arizona state
law and federal statutes prohibit the sale, distribution, trafficking, and manufacturing of controlled
substances.

Under Arizona Revised Statutes § 13-3407, individuals who engage in the sale or distribution of
controlled substances such as cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine, fentanyl, and prescription
medications without a valid prescription can face felony charges. Penalties vary depending on factors
such as the type and quantity of drugs involved, prior criminal history, and other conduct associated
with the alleged incident.

At the federal level, the Controlled Substances Act (21 U.S. Code § 841) establishes provisions for
prosecuting drug trafficking offenses, including the sale, distribution, and trafficking of illegal drugs
across state lines. Federal penalties for drug trafficking can be particularly severe, with mandatory
minimum sentences for certain offenses and the potential for asset forfeiture.
