Police forces in Clackamas County, Oregon, arrested four accused drug traffickers, leading authorities to the seizure of 150,000 fentanyl pills—the largest seizure of fentanyl in the state’s history. A press release by the Department of Justice detailed Thursday that the staggering find was valued at close to $4 million.

Authorities have charged Ufrano Orozco Munoz, 27, Abraham Vera Enriquez, 29, Jesus Miguel Zamora Cruz, 36, and Jose Javier Valdez Paramo, 32, with conspiring with one another to possess with intent to distribute fentanyl

In a court memo, Assistant U.S. Attorney Scott Kerin emphasized the significance of the seizure. “To say that the defendants are significant drug dealers is an understatement. Fentanyl is extremely destructive and deadly, and these defendants should not be given the opportunity to start dealing again,” Kevin said.

Fentanyl, a synthetic opioid, is about 80-100 times stronger than morphine, according to US Drug Enforcement Administration. Often ingested to produce a short-term euphoric high, the drug slows respiration and reduces blood pressure. more

  3. Old Man Burr — I think this article failed to mention that they also seized 20 pounds of fentynal in “bulk” form, as well as failing to mention all the suspects are in our country illegally because O’Brandon’s WH wants them here to vote Democrat in the midterms.

    I wonder, do drug dealers usually vote?

  5. ^^^^ don’t worry Hunter, there’s way more where that came from. Hook me up with the big guy for a border crossing I need help with. I’ve got a number of mules and human traffickers I need to get across and I’ll keep you in fentanyl until you od for good. BTW I really dig you paintings.
