A Conviction Carries Serious Consequences
Conviction for drug possession in Missouri leads to penalties including heavy fines and potential jail time. You also need to be concerned about the stain a conviction places on your record. Having a drug conviction on your record may prevent you from being gainfully employed and lead to higher insurance premiums.
