Elizabeth Salinas-Roldan, 42, a resident of Manchester, New Hampshire, has pleaded guilty to conspiracy to distribute cocaine in federal court, according to a recent announcement by Acting United States Attorney John J. Farley.
Between May and July 2016, Salinas-Roldan arranged with others to distribute cocaine to a cooperating individual in transactions that were audio and video-recorded. The defendant was arrested in December 2016.
Salinas-Roldan will be sentenced on April 12, 2018, and has been in custody since her arrest. The U.S. Attorney’s Office works with law enforcement partners to stop drug trafficking in communities, said Acting U.S. Attorney Farley.
Special Agent in Charge Harold H. Shaw, Federal Bureau of Investigation, Boston Division, praised the hard work of law enforcement officers whose efforts resulted in this conviction. The FBI Safe Streets Gang Task Force will continue to address violence and gang activity within communities, as well as stop the sale of illegal drugs and dangerous substances, Shaw stated.
The matter was investigated by the FBI’s Safe Streets Gang Task Force, which consists of FBI Special Agents and members of the Manchester Police Department, the Hudson Police Department, the New Hampshire State Police, the Nashua Police Department, and the New Hampshire Department of Corrections Probation and Parole. The case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Charles L. Rombeau.
Elizabeth Salinas-Roldan, 42, previously of Manchester, pleaded guilty in federal court to conspiracy to distribute cocaine.
This guilty plea not only exemplifies Ms. Salinas-Roldan’s full acceptance of her criminal activity, but her role in fueling the flow of illegal narcotics right here in Manchester, said Special Agent in Charge Shaw.
