A defendant was sentenced in federal court on drug and conspiracy charges stemming from a St. George arrest, as part of a broader crackdown on narcotics distribution. In a notable case, two individuals have been charged with distributing fentanyl-laced heroin that resulted in the death of Cecilia Gentili, a prominent transgender activist and 'Pose' star, found deceased in her Brooklyn home in February. The Justice Department announced the charges, which have sparked controversy and highlighted the public health crisis posed by fentanyl. Additionally, in Utah, a woman has been indicted by the FBI on several drug crimes, including possession and intent to distribute narcotics such as heroin, methamphetamine, and 11,700 fentanyl pills.
