Suspected drug distributor faces 45 years in prison

Posted:

Bond reduction has been denied for a Vietnamese man accused of possessing 30 pounds of marijuana.
 
Khac Nguyen, 25, a Vietnamese national, was arrested in late August after investigators stopped a three car convoy traveling with Nguyen.

According to defense attorney Ellery Grey, one car contained 30 pounds of marijuana. But, Nguyen was not in that vehicle. At least two other individuals have been arrested in connection with the crime.

Nguyen is charged two counts of conspiracy to distribute, and possession of more than 10 pounds of marijuana. He faces 45 years in prison if convicted on all counts.
 
Bond remains set at half a million dollars
