Mother of Minor Convicted in Fentanyl Ring
Description
A woman from Big Lake just received a 24-year federal sentence for being a drug mule in a massive fentanyl trafficking ring. Busted at the Del Rio border crossing in 2022 with nearly 40 pounds of fentanyl hidden in her car—while her young son was with her—she was part of a network moving 286 pounds of the deadly drug toward the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Authorities uncovered her role through coordinated efforts, including a canine unit and a hidden compartment in her vehicle. Her guilty plea and steep sentence underscore the deadly scale of these operations and the consequences of getting involved, even with family nearby.
