The defenses that are available in a drug case are: that it’s not drugs, that it is drugs but it’s not mine, and that it is drugs and it’s mine, but law enforcement obtained it unlawfully and unconstitutionally.
In this video, Atlanta, GA criminal defense attorney Sandy Wallack discusses the defenses that might be available in a Georgia drug case.
He says there are three possible defenses in a drug case:
- The substance in question is not actually drugs.
- The drugs are present, but they don’t belong to the defendant.
- The drugs belong to the defendant, but they were obtained through unlawful or unconstitutional actions by law enforcement.
