A man who pleaded guilty to drug trafficking was given no additional jail time in his federal case, records show.
SAN FRANCISCO — A Bay Area man who has been in custody on drug charges for more than a year has been sentenced to no additional jail time, months after pleading guilty to selling drugs to a confidential informant at a cafe and laundromat in the Tenderloin.
Cristian Moran-Garcia was sentenced in late April to time served for selling two ounces of methamphetamine to a confidential federal informant in June 2020. Moran-Garcia was been in jail awaiting resolution in his case for more than 14 months, court records show. He now faces deportation to Honduras.
