How does the new law change the “crack house statute?
The newly enacted Illicit Drug Anti-Proliferation Act of 2003 amended the statute to make it more feasible to successfully prosecute rogue event promoters. It clarifies that the law applies to promoters as well as owners, to any location rather than just the previously defined “enclosures,” and to one-night events as well as on-going events. The changes were necessary to close loopholes in existing law because rogue promoters could evade prosecution in several ways.
