Federal authorities have indicted five men in connection with drug trafficking and firearms offenses linked to Smoke Break Productions, a smoke shop in Orlando. The charges follow an investigation that alleges the business operated as a marketplace for drugs and guns.
According to the indictment, Angel Luis Carrasquillo, Rogelio Vidal, Jr., Andrew Abbott, Jahmil Lally, and Christopher Alonnzo face various federal charges. These include conspiracy to traffic drugs between November 2024 and July 2025, possession of firearms by convicted felons on multiple dates, and using or carrying a firearm during a drug trafficking crime.
The maximum penalties for these offenses range from 15 years to life in prison depending on the charge and defendant.
Court documents state that Carrasquillo ran Smoke Break Productions with his co-defendants distributing narcotics and firearms at the location. Authorities emphasize that an indictment is only a formal accusation; all defendants are presumed innocent unless proven guilty.
"This case was investigated by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and the Orange County Sheriff’s Office. It will be prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Noah P. Dorman."
The prosecution is part of Operation Take Back America, which is described as "a nationwide initiative that marshals the full resources of the Department of Justice to repel the invasion of illegal immigration, achieve the total elimination of cartels and transnational criminal organizations, and protect our communities from the perpetrators of violent crime." The operation also coordinates efforts through Project Safe Neighborhoods.
