In Virginia, a person may be charged if he knowingly possesses illegal drugs such as marijuana, heroin, cocaine, Ecstasy, methamphetamine, LSD, or PCP.
It is also illegal to possess drug paraphernalia including items used in the making of drugs and in the utilization of drugs.
Drug possession charges can vary depending on the type of drug, the amount of the drug, and the geographic region it was discovered.
In order to be charged with possession, a person does not have to actually be found with the drugs in his hand or in a pocket. Someone who is found near to illegal drugs can be charged with possession if there is some other evidence that he or she knew that the drugs were there.
