Bruno J. Haney, II, 35, of Niagara Falls, NY, who was convicted of conspiring to possess with intent to distribute, and distributing heroin, fentanyl, and butyryl fentanyl, was sentenced to serve 184 months in prison by U.S. District Judge John L. Sinatra, Jr.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Joshua A. Violanti, who handled the case, stated that between April 2017 and March 2019, Haney organised and led a drug trafficking organization.
In June 2017, the Niagara County Drug Task Force executed a search warrant at Haney’s residence, during which investigators seized several bags containing butyryl fentanyl, hydrocodone, acetaminophen, and alprazolam pills, $515 in cash, and drug paraphernalia. In January 2019, Haney was arrested, and a search warrant was executed at a second residence.
During that search, investigators recovered quantities of fentanyl, a mixture of heroin and fentanyl, marijuana, $978 in cash, and drug paraphernalia. In February 2019, Haney was released from custody on various conditions, including not committing any offence in violation of federal, state, or local law.
On March 7, 2019, another search warrant was executed at Haney’s residence, during which a bag containing a mixture of heroin and fentanyl, $373 in cash, and a digital scale were recovered.
