What are the Penalties for Drug Crimes in Illinois?

Penalties for drug crimes vary greatly, depending on various factors that pertain to your specific situation.

Depending on the severity of your charge, you may be facing any of the following penalties:

  • Misdemeanor charges
  • Felony charges
  • Jail time
  • Probation
  • Conditional discharge
  • Fines, fees, and court costs
  • Mandatory drug counseling
  • Community service
  • Deportation

Various circumstances may also lead the court to double your charges or fines, resulting in heavier fees, increased jail time, and stricter sentencing. Penalties for drug crimes in Illinois typically depend on the type and amount/weight of the controlled substance present on an individual. A “controlled substance” may refer to drugs like cocaine or heroin, but also may include certain prescription drugs as well. Cannabis is not considered a “controlled substance” and has its own set of penalties depending on the amount/weight in possession.
