I am hoping someone can help me understand what may happen in this case. My ex-husband was arrested during a drug sting in April. His charges are "possession of controlled substances, manufacturing, delivery, possession of controlled substances with the intent to manufacture and deliver, possession of marijuana, use, and possession of drug paraphernalia". I was told that our local police and the feds were involved. His SUV was even confiscated. Today was his formal arraignment. My lawyer says I have to wait about a week for us to find out the date of his pre-trial hearing. Also, she says that I can't go after full custody of our three children until he is convicted(which I do understand that). I want to know what kind of jail time he may be facing but I don't have all the information yet. I do not know the drug/drugs he was dealing or the amount. I have a feeling it might have been crack but I'm not sure. Can anyone tell me the process.. what happens next? Thank you
