Six individuals have been indicted on charges related to cocaine smuggling, according to recently unsealed court documents.
The men, identified as Adel Munro, Arim Boniface, Dave Compton, Rodney Dennis De Roche, Kevin Francis, and Jose Reinoza, were brought before U.S. Magistrate Emile A. Henderson III. They face allegations of possession of cocaine with intent to distribute and conspiracy to possess cocaine, specifically within maritime jurisdiction of the United States.
While the complaint remains sealed, limiting the public details available regarding the arrest, the executed warrants indicate that the suspects were detained by a special agent operating in Puerto Rico.
The court has scheduled a detention hearing for the accused on January 10, 2024, where further proceedings will take place. As the case unfolds, additional information concerning the nature of the alleged smuggling operation and the specifics of the defendants' apprehension is expected to emerge.
The case presents a significant operation by law enforcement agencies to combat the illegal drug trade within the jurisdiction of the United States.
