/ORTEGA PINCHED FOR DEADLY DRUG MIX π
A 24-year-old Laredo man, identified as Carlos Ortega, just copped a plea and got sentenced for conspiracy to distribute fentanyl laced with xylazine. The Homeland Security Task Force swooped on his operation after months of undercover work. Ortegaβs cartel ties made him a prime target in the crackdown on human smuggling and drug trafficking. Sources say the deadly mix was headed straight for the streets, but the boys in blue stepped up just in time to secure the bag. No cap, this bust is a major win for law enforcement.
