A law enforcement task force, including Prince William police, has indicted 14 people in a cocaine conspiracy case.
Following a year long investigation, the task force was able to make the indictments in federal court for the 14 individuals – several of whom are from Prince William County.
Included in the indictment was 26-year old Dale City man Roberto Esparza Suarez, 41-year old Triangle man Juan Delao, 24-year old Dale City woman Lisette Cordova and 34-year old Woodbridge man Jose Hernandez Lopez, according to a U.S. Justice Department release.
According to a release, the individuals are being indicted for their involvement in a criminal enterprise that was importing large quantities of cocaine from Mexico into the United States, before being distributed in the Washington D.C. area.
A U.S. Justice Department release stated that officers involved in the task force’s investigation found firearms, distribution amounts of cocaine and more than $45,000.
There were also several individuals from the area that pled guilty as co-conspirators, including 35-year old Dumfries man Jose Sanchez, 27-year old Woodbridge man Guillermo Castellon, 27-year old Manassas man Oscar Marroquin and 24-year old Manassas man Sifredo Barrientos, according to a release.
A release stated that many of the individuals indicted could face a minimum penalty of ten years to a maximum penalty of life in prison, if they are convicted.
