Drug crimes in Massachusetts generally fall into three categories: possession, distribution, and manufacturing. Possession of illegal drugs is a crime in Massachusetts and carries serious penalties ranging from fines to jail time, depending on the amount and type of drug involved. Distribution and manufacturing of drugs are also criminal offenses in Massachusetts. Distribution or sale of illicit substances carries tougher penalties than simple possession. In addition, distributing or manufacturing drugs near schools, playgrounds, or public parks will result in harsher sentences as well.
