Waltham, Massachusetts Cocaine Sales Defense Lawyer

Hand to hand sales to undercover police officers can be difficult to defend. A typical defense in cases like this is entrapment. Most people think that police officers acting in an undercover capacity give rise to an entrapment defense. It does not. Rather, to prevail under this theory it must be established that the defendant was not predisposed to dealing drugs and that the undercover police pressured him or her in a way that overcame their will not to sell drugs. Even the most Experienced Massachusetts Drug Crimes Defense Lawyers find difficulty in successfully presenting entrapment defenses.
