    Default Marketing a Product That Contains a Controlled Substance

    My question involves business law in the state of: Georgia

    If one were to promote a product that contained a scheduled substance that they were unaware was in the product they were helping the seller to advertise, could the advertiser get arrested?

    Default Re: Marketing a Product That Contains a Controlled Substance

    Could the police and a prosecutor conclude that the person was involved in the illegal sale of a controlled substance? There would be fact scenarios under which it would be possible.

    If this is a situation in which you innocently worked to market a product and have now discovered that it contains a controlled substance, you will want to stop. You will then want to consult your lawyer.

    If this were a situation in which you are hoping to market such a product and hoping for plausible deniability, the intent to later claim that you didn't know what was in it in the hope of avoiding potential charges, don't do it.
