Even for an indictment, this is...surprisingly bare.

(For example, this is an Alphabay seller who was selling and distributing fentanyl in Cincinnati two months ago).

It looks like they put together the minimum needed to indict, put together a grand jury, indicted and arrested. This was the prosecutor's "ham sandwich" of the week.

FYI, that file has the name, social security number, and address of the person being indicted. It says it's supposed to be redacted-- but there it is.

Good catch.

I didn't see that when I downloaded the file from PACER. I've since uploaded a redacted version to dropbox.

so i can get the non-redacted version from pacer? thanks

>During a mirandized interview before LE, [he] admitted to mailing approximately 30-35 parcels that contained 50-100mg quantities of Fentanyl each.

Makes me wonder if all the sellers are this inept, or if they're the only ones that get caught...

The preceding paragraph says "we saw them putting the parcels in the mail box and arrested him"

He might have only admitted to things the cops had seen him do a few minutes before. I can understand someone thinking there was no point in denying such things - although asking for a lawyer would surely be a smarter move.

parallel construction takes time!

Definitely a rush job when they found out he was coming to the US.

The UK is one of the only countries I know that extradites its own citizens to the US. So I don't think he was out of their reach.
