Drug Trafficking
The Oklahoma Trafficking in Illegal Drugs act applies to anyone who knowingly distributes, manufactures, brings into this state, possesses, possesses with intent to manufacture, or uses the services of a minor to distribute or manufacture a controlled dangerous substance. The state of Oklahoma takes these charges so seriously that drug traffickers are even subject to liability from the loved ones of a drug user who dies as a result of an overdose that is linked to the trafficker.
