Jorge Orceguera-Rocha, 25, was charged Monday with one felony count each of possessing fentanyl for sale and transporting narcotics.
The Riverside County Sheriff’s Office announced last week that it was investigating a drug ring when it identified one of its own employees — Orceguera-Rocha — as playing a critical role in transporting narcotics into the county.
But on September 16, deputies learned he was planning to travel to an “identified narcotic stash location” in Victorville, Calif., investigator Joshua Ricard wrote in an affidavit obtained by USA Today. “Inside the trunk of the vehicle, deputies located four trash bags all containing square-shaped [packages] wrapped in clear cellophane,” the affidavit says.
