Indiana Man Sentenced for Role in 10-Defendant Marijuana Conspiracy

Members of south Texas drug trafficking organization sentenced to federal prison

BROWNSVILLE, TX—Delton Hinderliter, 37 of Indianapolis, Indiana, has been sentenced to 112 months in federal prison for his role in a 10-defendant marijuana conspiracy, announced U.S. Attorney Kenneth Magidson. Hinderliter pleaded guilty in May 2014 to conspiracy with intent to distribute a quantity exceeding 1000 kilograms of marijuana.

Hinderliter was part of a multi-state drug trafficking and money laundering organization that had existed since 2010. The drug trafficking organization, based out of the Rio Grande Valley, would hire out-of-state truck drivers to haul loads of produce with ton quantities of marijuana hidden in false compartments. Drug proceeds would then be transported back to the Rio Grande Valley. The conspiracy extended to Indiana, Kentucky, Illinois, North Carolina and Tennessee.

The evidence at sentencing proved that Hinderliter was a distributer of marijuana for the drug trafficking organization in Indiana. Hinderliter’s sentence includes upward adjustments or increases in his calculated sentencing guideline range because he was found to have maintained a premises to facilitate the offloading, processing and distribution of illicit narcotics, and because he was found to be a leader within the drug trafficking organization. As part of his sentence, Hinderliter agreed to a $5 million money judgment against him. Five other individuals charged and convicted in the case were previously sentenced to terms ranging from 38-189 months in federal prison. Four others have also been convicted and are pending sentencing.

The case was the result of a nearly three-year Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force investigation lead by the Drug Enforcement Administration with the assistance of Internal Revenue Service-Criminal Investigation; Homeland Security Investigations; Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives; FBI; Sheriff’s Offices in Cameron and Zapata Counties; Hildalgo County High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area task force; Border Patrol and the Brownsville Police Department. Assistant U.S. Attorney Angel Castro is prosecuting the case.

Utica Man Sentenced in Marijuana Conspiracy

Marijuana Distributed in Utica, New York Came from Northern California

SYRACUSE, NEW YORK – Angelo Santalucia, 50, of Utica, New York was sentenced today by Chief U.S. District Judge Glenn T. Suddaby to serve a twenty-seven (27) month term of imprisonment, to be followed by four (4) years of supervised release, announced United States Attorney Richard S. Hartunian.  The sentence followed his May 10, 2016 guilty plea to one count of conspiracy to distribute marijuana.

The marijuana was grown in Northern California and moved through “stash houses” in Las Vegas, Nevada before being mailed to Santalucia.  At the direction of coconspirators, Santalucia delivered the marijuana to others in the Utica, New York area for further distribution and sale. Santalucia also admitted that he sometimes paid others to receive the boxes of marijuana on his behalf.  

This case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigations, the Bureau of Alcohol, Firearms, Tobacco and Explosives, the Drug Enforcement Administration, the Oneida County Sheriff’s Office, the New York State Police, the Oneida County District Attorney’s Office, and was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Carl G.

Two Tons Of Marijuana Seized In McHenry County

A marijuana growing operation at two homes in McHenry County was raided this week by the Lake County Metropolitan Enforcement Group, the McHenry County Sheriff, and federal authorities. Together, they collected 2,200 plants from a home in the 7900 block of Maple Street in Marengo and 2,100 plants from a home in the 17600 block of Kishwaukee Valley Road near Woodstock, or about $6.6 million in marijuana plants altogether. 

Each plant yields about a pound of dried marijuana and has a street value of $1,500 per pound, said MEG Deputy Director Jeff Padilla. "These guys were professionals. This was their business," he said.

The operations included grow lights, drip lines, ventilation, air purification units and illegal power lines run off the main line to hide the fact they were using a lot of electricity.

Charged with conspiracy to manufacture marijuana were Robert Cain, 47, of Cary; Charles Persico, 32, of Hoffman Estates; Jerry Romine, 30, of Woodstock; Jonathan Romine, 32, of Lake in the Hills; Loretta Cattani, 56, of Union; and Robert Stringini, 71, of Schaumburg. Padilla said that those arrested are family members and the continuing investigation could lead to more arrests. Police also found 4,400 pounds of marijuana growing and 500 pounds of dried marijuana ready for packaging. The two houses were owned by family members and not rented.

Jury Convicts Columbia Man Of Marijuana Conspiracy

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. – Beth Phillips, United States Attorney for the Western District of Missouri, announced today that a Columbia, Mo., man has been convicted by a federal jury of conspiracy to distribute more than 100 kilograms of marijuana in Boone County, Mo. 

            Eric Scott McCauley, 29, of Columbia, was found guilty on Wednesday, March 16, 2011, of 29 counts contained in an April 3, 2009, superseding indictment. 

The original indictment in this case was filed in March 2007 in the wake of one of the largest seizures of marijuana in the history of the Columbia, Mo., Police Department. Evidence presented during the trial indicated that McCauley led a drug-trafficking conspiracy that was responsible for distributing more than 100 kilograms of marijuana in Boone County from 2005 to December 2008. During the investigation, law enforcement officers seized $224,663 cash attributable to/owned by McCauley. 

In addition to the drug-trafficking conspiracy, McCauley was convicted of one count of distributing marijuana and two counts of possessing marijuana with the intent to distribute. 

            McCauley was also found guilty of participating in a money-laundering conspiracy. McCauley was also convicted of 24 counts of money laundering related to transfers of funds derived from the drug-trafficking conspiracy or conducting financial transactions that were designed to conceal the location of drug-trafficking proceeds. 

Co-defendants Robert Allen Hocks, 29, and Galen Cutter Baxley, 27, both of Columbia, have pleaded guilty to their roles in the drug-trafficking conspiracy. McCauley and his co-conspirators often traveled to Massachusetts and California to purchase high-grade marijuana, which they redistributed in Boone County.

When Columbia police officers executed a search warrant at a stash house at 4647 Brandon Woods, Columbia, on Feb. 7, 2007, they discovered more than 240 pounds of marijuana. The drug-trafficking conspiracy continued for more than a year afterward, during which time McCauley and Baxley moved to Kansas City, Mo. In December 2008, law enforcement officers discovered approximately 12 pounds of marijuana in the trunk of Baxley and McCauley’s vehicle, which was parked on the street in front of McCauley’s apartment building.

            Following the presentation of evidence, the jury in the U.S. District Court in Jefferson City, Mo.,  deliberated for about five hours hour before returning the guilty verdict to U.S. District Judge Nanette K. Laughrey, ending a trial that began Monday, March 14, 2011.

            Under federal statutes, McCauley is subject to a mandatory minimum sentence of five years in federal prison without parole, up to a sentence of 45 years in federal prison without parole. A sentencing hearing will be scheduled after the completion of a presentence investigation by the United States Probation Office.

This case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorneys Lauren Kummerer and Jim Lynn. It was investigated by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, IRS-Criminal Investigation and the Columbia, Mo., Police Department.

This case is the product of an investigation by the U.S. Forest Service, the Trinity County Sheriff’s Office, and the California Department of Justice’s North State Marijuana Investigative Team (NSMIT). Assistant United States Attorneys Samuel Wong, Richard Bender, and Gregory Broderick are prosecuting the case.
