SDNY COURTHOUSE,
July 13– In a multi-defendants
heroin and fentanyl conspiracy
case about 501 East 167th
Street in Washington Heights,
yet another defendant was
presented on January 3, 2020
in the U.S. District Court for
the Southern District of New
York Magistrates Court.
He was
Victor Hidalgo, and he has a
bachelors degree in business
administration. He told SDNY
Magistrate Judge Steward D.
Aaron that he has never taken
drugs. But based on the weight
of drugs he is charged with
conspiring to sell, he faces a
guideline of 262 to 326
months, with a 60 month
mandatory minimum in his plea
agreement.
Now in the same overall case,
a sentencing by SDNY Judge
Colleen McMahon: PEDRO VICIOSO
DE LIMA, a/k/a “Pep,” a/k/a
“Pepo,” was sentenced today in
Manhattan federal court to 180
months in prison for leading a
drug trafficking organization
that was responsible for
dealing fentanyl-laced heroin
that has been tied to multiple
suspected fatal and nonfatal
overdoses."
The case is US v.
De Lima, 18-cr-802 (McMahon).
