ALBANY, NEW YORK - Sean R. Fabian, age 42, of Plattsburgh, New York, was sentenced yesterday to 78 months in prison for conspiring to distribute 300 grams of cocaine.
The announcement was made by United States Attorney Grant C. Jaquith; Special Agent in Charge Ray Donovan, United States Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), New York Division; and Plattsburgh City Police Chief Levi J. Ritter.
Fabian was convicted by a jury on April 5, 2019 following a four-day trial. The evidence showed that on Feb. 11, 2018, Fabian conspired with Hannah Dyer to traffic 300 grams of cocaine from New York City to Plattsburgh for distribution. On Feb. 13, 2018, the pair met in Albany where Fabian provided the 300 grams of cocaine to Dyer, who was to take the cocaine to Plattsburgh. The New York State Police stopped Dyer’s vehicle in Clinton County and found the 300 grams of cocaine in a thermos, submerged in a fish stew.
United States District Judge Mae A. D’Agostino also sentenced Fabian to 6 years of supervised release, to follow his incarceration. Fabian has been in custody since his arrest on June 21, 2018.
This case was investigated by the DEA and the Plattsburgh City Police Department, and was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorneys Douglas Collyer and Troy Anderson.
