Client Facing 20 Years in Miami Cocaine Trafficking Case Sentenced to 24 Months

March 22, 2016

Our client traveled to Ft. Lauderdale, Florida and attempted to purchase 10 kilograms of cocaine in exchange for $180,000.00 from undercover DEA agents.


The entire transaction was caught on video and audio tape by the authorities in a restaurant parking lot. Our firm managed to get one of the counts dismissed. At sentencing, the lawyers at DMT argued that our client played a minor role in the offense. Despite the fact that the lawyer from the United States Attorney's Office objected vehemently to our arguments, the Federal Judge granted our client the 1000 hour drug course and the minor role. The efforts of our Federal Miami criminal attorney resulted in less than eighteen months incarceration for our client.
