fentanyl; possession; sale; amount; sentencing
Arizona's HB 2132 increases penalties for fentanyl offenses. It sets a minimum 5-year prison sentence for selling or possessing fentanyl in amounts of 200 grams or more (with repeat offenses requiring 10+ years), replaces probation eligibility for these cases, and mandates a $2,000+ fine. Convicted individuals must also complete 360 hours of community service with substance abuse programs and undergo mandatory drug testing if on probation. The bill directly affects people convicted of fentanyl-related sales or possession above the threshold, aiming to strengthen sentencing for serious drug offenses.
