Man sentenced to Arizona jail in fentanyl trafficking scheme

Posted

A Texas man has been sentenced to one year in a jail and probation in relation to trafficking fentanyl from Arizona in what officials said was a multistate drug trafficking organization.

Lino Bol pled guilty to one count of illegally conducting an enterprise, a class 3 felony, and attempted transportation for sale of a narcotic drug, a class 3 felony. On Sept. 19, Bol was sentenced to serve three years on probation and one-year incarceration in the Pima County Jail, according to a press release from the Arizona Attorney General’s Office.

“My office will continue to work tirelessly to dismantle drug trafficking organizations that ship fentanyl into Arizona and our local communities,” said Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes in the release.

Lino Bol was a member of a cell operating in Texas. Bol, along with other individuals in group, sent approximately $68,862 to Tucson and received 16 packages believed to contain fentanyl. Based upon the money transferred and the messages exchanged, law enforcement officers estimate this group received over 16,0000 fentanyl pills, according to the press release.


Assistant Attorneys General Matthew McCray and Matthew Ashton handled this case for the Attorney General’s Office.
