Three drug kingpins and 16 other offenders in Nigeria have been sentenced to a combined 302 years in prison for trafficking cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine, cannabis, and opioids, leading a list of 414 convicted traffickers in July 2024. One kingpin, Bolanle Dauda, was caught with 57.5 kilograms of cocaine while attempting to cross into Ghana. In Weld County, Colorado, 67-year-old Jose Arellano-Arredondo received a 376-year prison sentence for leading a drug trafficking operation. Found guilty of over 40 counts, he was part of an operation that transported drugs from Mexico to Nevada and Arizona before reaching Colorado. The investigation led to the seizure of thousands of fentanyl pills, multiple pounds of meth, several ounces of cocaine, and over $100,000 in cash. These cases highlight significant law enforcement successes in combating large-scale drug trafficking operations.
