John Artis was paroled in 1981, after serving 15 years in jail because of the crime he committed with Rubin Carter. He was sent back to jail 5 years later on charges of conspiracy to distribute cocaine and illegal possession of a handgun.
Texas doesn't take possession of cocaine, or distribution of cocaine lightly. Even a gram of crack cocaine in your possession at the time of arrest can result in felony charges. The cocaine possession penalties and jail time will depend upon the amount of possession. As an example, conviction for less than one gram of cocaine may be punishable by up to two years in a state jail facility and/or by a fine not to exceed 10,000 dollars. Any or all of the state jail time and/or fines may be probated, in an eligible case, for up to five years. An experienced Texas attorney familiar with drug violations criminal defense may be critical to avoiding jail time for possession of cocaine.
