Conspiracy Conviction Can Lead to a Long Sentence
Conspiracy charges in state court, or conspiracy and racketeering charges in federal court, can make a bad situation far worse. It is important to have a criminal defense lawyer at your side who will stand by you, explain the charges and help mitigate the damages.
At the Otis & Johnson law firm in Covington, Kentucky, we have the experience and knowledge to guide you through the criminal justice process and protect your rights.
In a Conspiracy, Every Member Is Liable for All Actions
If one person in a conspiracy used a weapon, then all members of the alleged conspiracy can face a weapons charge — and the additional sentencing enhancements of a weapons charge. A conspiracy conviction carries the potential for huge penalties.
- State and federal prosecutors sometimes add conspiracy charges to other charges. For example, a drug charge may have a conspiracy charge added on if anyone else was involved.
- Conspiracy charges may be used to convince the person charged to provide evidence against someone else.
- Before talking to law enforcement or a prosecutor, it is important to have a defense attorney who understands the system and the laws — and who will protect your rights and best interests.

Know you rights. Retain a criminal defense attorney who will protect those rights. Do not make an agreement with law enforcement or prosecutors until you have consulted a lawyer. These are always good rules to follow, but when facing racketeering or conspiracy charges, they are especially important. Contact a criminal defense trial lawyer at Otis & Johnson.
