What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
Hello, I'm in the state of Virginia and I'm really worried about a friend of mine so was hoping to get some advice. Please help if you can and thank you in advance.
My friend has a previous conviction of accommodation (drug related), and that was in 2002. He now has class u felony charge of intent to distribute. The officer has him on 4 controlled buys. This would be the second charge, so even with a lawyer is there any chance at all he won't get jail time? Maybe probation, community work, etc....? I'm really worried about his mental state. I do know that he was wrong in what he was doing, and that he should be responsible, and will be whatever happens. The reason I am worried though, is because my friend suffers from a long history of depression, and has severe sleep apnea. Again not an excuse, but just the facts of the situation.
Thank you!
