An 11-count indictment was filed in federal court charging a Seven Hills man for conspiring to distribute oxycodone and other pills, Acting U.S. Attorney Carole Rendon said.
Alfonso C. Yunis, 42, was indicted on one count of conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute oxycodone, two counts of distribution of oxycodone, two counts of using U.S. mail to facilitate a felony and six counts for distribution of controlled substances, including Alprazolam, testosterone, amphetamines, oxycodone, Diazepam, and others. These actions took place between Sept. 9 and Oct. 26, 2015, according to the indictment.
This case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Marisa Darden following an investigation by United States Postal Inspection Service
If convicted, the defendant's sentence will be determined by the court after a review of the federal sentencing guidelines and factors unique to the case, including the defendant’s prior criminal record (if any), the defendant’s role in the offense, and the characteristics of the violation.
An indictment only a charge and is not evidence of guilt. A defendant is entitled to a fair trial in which it will be the government’s burden to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
