Drug arrests are among the most frequent in San Joaquin County, ranging from simple possession cases that may carry relatively modest bail to large-scale trafficking operations where bail can reach into the hundreds of thousands of dollars. The bail amount depends heavily on the type of drug, the quantity, and whether there are additional charges like weapons possession or intent to distribute.
California law distinguishes sharply between simple possession for personal use and possession for sale or transportation. A first-offense simple possession of a controlled substance may result in bail of $10,000 to $25,000, while possession for sale can see bail of $50,000 to $250,000 or more depending on the drug and quantity.
