COURTHOUSE,
Aug 5 – A man charged with
conspiracy to distribute
fentanyl pled guilty on March
31, 2026 before Judge Jesse M.
Furman in the U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York, which
Inner City Press closely
covers.
The
initial complaint had a photo
of "package recovered from
Jeep-1," and said that during
a search, the defendant's
wallet had his ID with his
name on it.
Now for the
sentencing scheduled for
August 6, 2026, he is asking
for the five year mandatory
minimum.
The case
is USA v. Diaz Mejia, et al.,
1:25-cr-306 (Furman)
