New Orleans, LA – In a shocking turn of events, Corey Enclarde, a 53-year-old man from Violet, LA, has pleaded guilty to two counts of a superseding indictment. Enclarde, also known as "Murda," faces serious charges that could land him behind bars for years to come.
According to court documents, Enclarde conspired with other members of a drug trafficking organization to distribute and possess with the intent to distribute cocaine hydrochloride. This is a serious offense that carries severe penalties, including a maximum term of imprisonment of up to 20 years, a fine of up to $1,000,000.00, a period of supervised release of at least 3 years, and a mandatory special assessment fee of $100.00.
In addition to the conspiracy charge, Enclarde was also charged with use of communication facilities to further a drug trafficking crime in violation of Title 21, United States Code, Section 843(b). This charge carries a maximum term of imprisonment of up to 4 years, a fine of up to $250,000.00, a period of supervised release of up to 1 year, and a mandatory special assessment fee of $100.00.
The case was investigated by the Drug Enforcement Administration, and the prosecution was led by Brittany Reed, Andre Jones, and Melissa Bucher of the Violent Crime/Strike Force Unit of the U.S. Attorney’s Office.
Enclarde will be sentenced on June 7, 2022, by United States District Court Judge Susie Morgan. At this time, it is unclear what sentence Enclarde will face, but it is likely to be significant given the severity of the charges.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office has stated that Enclarde’s actions were a threat to public safety, and that his guilty plea is a major victory for the community. This case serves as a reminder of the ongoing efforts to combat drug trafficking and organized crime in our region.
In related news, the DEA has announced plans to increase its presence in the area, with a focus on disrupting the supply chain of illicit narcotics. This move is seen as a major step forward in the fight against drug trafficking, and it remains to be seen what impact it will have on the community.
For now, Enclarde’s fate remains uncertain, but one thing is clear: he has been held accountable for his actions, and justice has been served.
