A large-scale Organized Crime and Drug Enforcement Task Force investigation resulted in 10 Magic Valley residents being indicted on drug trafficking charges.
An additional 10 defendants were also charged for their actions to conspire, according to U.S. Attorney John Hurwit.
A release from the District of Idaho, U.S. Attorney’s Office says, the defendants are accused of possessing and distributing large quantities of methamphetamine throughout the Magic Valley area, according to the indictments, with over 30 pounds of methamphetamine being seized.
