Seventy-Year-Old Faces Heroin Charges | Sacramento News
Description
A 70-year-old man from Olivehurst, Jose Gilberto Alvarez, faces federal charges for distributing heroin — four counts of trafficking a pound over four separate incidents in Yuba-Sutter County between April and July 2026. Led by the DEA and backed by local sheriffs, the investigation resulted in a dramatic indictment with potential penalties of up to 40 years in prison and a $5 million fine. This case sends a stark message: age doesn’t protect you from the consequences of drug distribution — and the legal battle is just beginning.
