SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Sept 15 – Saul Pacheco was
convicted of selling 100 pills
containing fentanyl in New
York City a month of being
arrested for fenantyl-laced
heroin in upstate New
York.
On September 15
U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Judge Paul A. Engelmayer held
his sentencing. Inner City
Press covered it.
The US
Attorney's Office emphasized
that "at least one customer
had died from an overdose
based on the drugs provide by
Pacheco's source of supply,"
and in the proceeding spoke a
victim's name.
Pacheco's
lawyer on the other hand
emphasized how he had worked
on this father's ice cream
truck and has a job waiting
for him when he gets out of
jail, seemingly in
Danbury.
Judge Engelmayer
took a short break, as is his
way, and then imposed a
sentence of 90 months, below
the 108 months guidelines but
six months more than the
sentence in the North District
of New York heroin case.
This case is US
v. Pacheco, 18-cr-659
(Engelmayer)
