At least 13 people have been charged after law enforcement in Loxahatchee raided five homes and found grow rooms and dozens of plants and clippings weighing more than 200 pounds.  This investigation is a result of Operation Eagle Claw, a statewide law enforcement effort to curb the spread of hydroponic marijuana grow houses throughout the state of Florida. Eleven of the 13 people arrested were held without bond.

A case like this usually results in a charge(s) of trafficking of marijuana, which carries a minimum mandatory prison sentence of three (3) years in Florida State Prison.  However, the attorneys at Hager & Schwartz, P.A. have extensive experience in drug trafficking cases throughout the state of Florida and in many instances can get the minimum mandatory prison sentence waived by the State of Florida.  Call our office to schedule a free consultation at 866-850-7575.
