Heroin, fentanyl, trafficking
UNIFORM CONTROLLED SUBSTANCES – Amends existing law to revise penalties for trafficking in heroin and to provide penalties for trafficking in fentanyl.

RS30131 / H0067

This legislation modifies the quantities provided regarding heroin in the drug trafficking statute and the sentences involved. These changes will help provide that the trafficking statues are applied to those participating in drug distribution and sales instead of those engaging solely in personal use. The sentencing time frames are being modified to more closely correspond to other controlled substances in the statute. Fentanyl and its derivatives are often 1000 times more potent and dangerous than heroin. It is being added to the trafficking statutes to reduce fentanyl drug trafficking in Idaho.
