The indictment claims that, from about June 2019 through June 2020, the defendants distributed over 100 kilograms of cocaine, heroin, fentanyl and crack cocaine across Long Island and New Jersey. The narcotics were allegedly obtained on the West Coast and both the U.S. Postal Service and drivers with hidden vehicle compartments were allegedly used to transport the substances to Long Island, where they were stored and eventually distributed to lower-level dealers.
According to a statement from a spokesperson for the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of New York, Maxwell was the last of the six people involved to be arrested. Sullivan was arrested on Sept. 30; the Leonardis and Cyntje were arrested Oct. 13; and Wiggins was arrested Oct. 27. Breon Peace, a U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of New York, said in a statement, “As alleged, the defendants transported, distributed and sold more than 100 kilograms of deadly and addictive drugs, including heroin and fentanyl, on Long Island, deliberately contributing to the opioid epidemic that has devastated our communities and taken too many lives.
