Robert Scott, a 60-year-old Binghamton man, was caught with a deadly cache of fentanyl and crack cocaine, possessing at least 40 grams of fentanyl and 28 grams of crack cocaine with the intent to distribute on October 30, 2025. Scott, who was already on federal probation, is facing serious time for his alleged crimes in Binghamton, New York. The reason behind Scott’s actions is not clear, but the consequences of his alleged crimes could be devastating for the community.
The indictment is the result of a joint effort by the FBI, Binghamton Police Department, and Broome County Special Investigations Unit Task Force. First Assistant United States Attorney John Sarcone stated that the allegations against Scott highlight the ongoing struggle to stop the flow of deadly drugs into local communities.
Scott’s alleged crimes carry a minimum sentence of 5 years in prison and a maximum sentence of up to 40 years, as well as a fine of up to $5,000,000 and a period of supervised release of at least 4 years and up to life. The FBI and its partners are committed to holding accountable individuals who allegedly traffic dangerous drugs into their communities.
The investigation and indictment of Scott demonstrate the commitment of law enforcement agencies to combating drug trafficking in New York. As Special Agent in Charge of the FBI–Albany Field Office Craig Tremaroli stated, the indictment illustrates the FBI’s dedication to working with partners to investigate and hold accountable those who allegedly traffic deadly drugs.
