CONCORD, N.H. (AP) - Authorities say a man has been sentenced in New Hampshire to over seven years in prison for trafficking fentanyl and heroin.
The U.S. Attorney’s office says 28-year-old Edward Garcia participated in a drug-trafficking group out of Lawrence, Massachusetts, that distributed heroin in 2013. Garcia also began selling fentanyl as part of a separate drug distribution network.
Garcia is a citizen of the Dominican Republic. He previously pleaded guilty to conspiracy to distribute, and to possess with the intent to distribute, heroin and distribution of fentanyl. He faces likely deportation after he serves his sentence.
