Drug Trafficking in Phoenix

As a border state, Arizona has been designated by the U. S. Justice Department as a High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area (HIDTA), described as a “major arrival zone” for huge quantities of illegal drugs brought into the U. S. from Mexico.

As such, Phoenix and other Arizona areas are heavily targeted by state and federal law enforcement agencies with the mission of reducing illegal trafficking in the area. According to the Justice Department, 42 percent of all marijuana seizures that took place along the Arizona-Mexico border in 2009 occurred in the HIDTA.

Heroin and cocaine seizures have also increased in the HIDTA due to the concentration of law enforcement efforts. Many of these seizures have resulted in drug trafficking charges being filed in Arizona.

If you are convicted of drug trafficking, you may be at risk for incarceration, heavy fines, probation, and other court-ordered actions. Convictions of this crime also pose significant legal problems for those who are not citizens of the United States.
