Certain drug crimes may be considered federal crimes in several different situations. Any drug crime that concerns high volumes or quantities of controlled substances could be considered a federal offense. The schedule of the drug involved in the crime will also affect how the crime will be charged. Schedule I controlled substances have a higher potential for abuse than other drugs, and have no medical use, so if the type of drug involved in the crime was a schedule I substance, the likelihood of it being considered a federal offense increases.
