Prosecution of Drug Offenses Sample Clauses

Prosecution of Drug Offenses. On May 14, 1998, the Attorney General issued Directive 1998-1 to establish uniform standards and criteria for prosecuting cases under the Comprehensive Drug Reform Act. The Attorney General Directive recognizes that reports of studies indicate that the high rates of drug use by school-age children remain a serious concern. In order to reverse this disturbing trend, the Attorney General Directive made clear that it is a prosecutor’s responsibility to deter drug offenses by sending the strongest possible message that there are serious legal consequences for engaging in this form of criminal behavior, and that the law enforcement community is committed to making certain that juvenile drug offenders will be held accountable through the imposition of the mandatory non-incarcerative sanctions prescribed in the Comprehensive Drug Reform Act, including the suspension or postponement of driving privileges, the payment of mandatory Drug Enforcement and Demand Reduction cash penalties based upon the degree of the offense involved, and the requirement that juvenile drug offenders perform at least 100 hours of community service if the offense occurred on or within a drug-free school zone. Attorney General Directive 1998-1 further recognizes that the general and special deterrent effect of these non-incarcerative sanctions would be seriously eroded if juveniles taken into custody for provable drug offenses were to report to their classmates and friends that these sanctions were not imposed. Moreover, the Directive establishes that it is contrary to public policy and the clearly-expressed intention of the Legislature to xxxxxx the appearance that a juvenile is entitled to one “free” drug offense before the statutorily-mandated non-incarcerative sanctions will actually be imposed. Accordingly, the Directive requires prosecutors to seek imposition of these sanctions in all cases, including those that are diverted to a Juvenile Conference Committee, an Intake Services Conference, a Juvenile Family-Crisis Intervention Unit, or any other diversion program.
