The drug produces a euphoric high by releasing serotonin and other chemicals in the brain.

Possession of MDMA, Molly or Ecstasy

MDMA is a Schedule I substance irrespective of the name used to describe the drug (e.g. Molly or Ecstasy). It is included within this schedule as a hallucinogenic that has no legal use in New Jersey or any other state. Possession of MDMA is regulated by N.J.S.A. 2C:35-10 which makes it a third degree crime to have this form of CDS for personal use. What this means is that you will face a felony offense which, again, can only be dealt with at the county courthouse in Mt. Holly. You will face significant penalties if you are convicted. You can be fined of up to $35,000 and sent to prison for of up to 5 years. In addition, you are subject to a mandatory suspension of your driver’s license for 6-24 months.

Selling, Distributing or Possession With Intent to Distribute MDMA

A conviction for distribution of Molly or a similar hallucinogenic has the potential to be much more severe, especially when a school zone or public park charge is involved. If you sell Ecstasy/MDMA in an amount of less than .5 ounces, you face a third degree crime with the same penalties as simple possession except that the maximum fine is increased to $75,000. It is a second degree crime to possess with the intent to distribute at least one-half ounce but less than 5 ounces of Molly, MDMA or Ecstasy. Third degree MDMA distribution results in a fine of up to $150,000 and as much as 10 years in prison. First degree distribution of MDMA/Molly/Ecstasy applies where the quantity distributed is 5 ounces or more. This pedigree of intent to sell carries a $500,000 fine, up to 20 years in state prison, and a mandatory minimum term of incarceration of at least one-third and as much as one-half of the sentence imposed. What this translates into is a period, typically half of the jail sentence, in which you are not eligible to be released, that is, you are parole ineligible.
