BOSTON – A Wilmington man is behind bars after pleading guilty to dealing fentanyl.
Bryan Moran, 35, pleaded guilty to possession with intent to distribute 40 grams or more of fentanyl on August 3, 2018, in federal court in Boston.

Moran faces a mandatory minimum sentence of 10 years and up to life in prison, at least eight years and up to a lifetime of supervised release, a fine of up to $8 million, and forfeiture.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Katherine Ferguson of U.S. Attorney Andrew E. Lelling’s Narcotics and Money Laundering Unit is prosecuting the case.
United States Attorney Andrew E. Lelling; Albert Angelucci, Acting Special Agent in Charge of the Drug Enforcement Administration, New England Division; Wilmington Police Chief Michael Begonis; and North Reading Police Chief Michael Murphy made the announcement today.
