Dylan Miles, Methamphetamine Trafficking, New Hampshire 2019

CONCORD – In a shocking turn of events, Dylan Miles, 28, of Laconia, pleaded guilty on May 9, 2019 in federal court to conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine and possession of a firearm by a prohibited person, announced United States Attorney John J. Farley today.

According to court documents and statements made in court, on May 9, 2019, Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) agents received information about a suspicious parcel sent from Phoenix, Arizona, to New Hampshire addressed to Miles in Laconia. After obtaining a warrant to open the package, investigators found a stereo system with vacuum-sealed bags containing over 665 grams of methamphetamine.

Investigators obtained an anticipatory search warrant for Miles’ residence and on May 10, 2019, conducted a controlled delivery of the package with the drugs removed. Once Miles took the package into the residence, agents executed the warrant and located methamphetamine, drug distribution materials, and firearms. Miles is prohibited from possessing firearms due to a prior felony conviction.

Miles is scheduled to be sentenced on May 24, 2022.

“Methamphetamine is an extremely dangerous drug that is threatening large and small communities throughout New Hampshire,” said U.S. Attorney Farley. “When methamphetamine traffickers are armed, the risk to public safety is greatly increased. Good law enforcement work prevented this large quantity of methamphetamine from being sold in the Granite State and put this armed drug dealer out of business.”

This matter was investigated by the Drug Enforcement Administration, Homeland Security Investigations, the New Hampshire State Police, the New Hampshire Attorney General’s Drug Task Force, the Hartford, Vermont Police Department, and the Lebanon Police Department. The case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Anna Krasinski.

Defendant Miles, a 28-year-old resident of Laconia, New Hampshire, faces charges of conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine and possession of a firearm by a prohibited person. The exact criminal charges against him are: conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine and possession of a firearm by a prohibited person. The city and state where the crime took place is Laconia, New Hampshire. The exact date of the crime is not specified in the source, but the date of the guilty plea is May 9, 2019.
