Jock Walker, a 45-year-old New Orleans man, has been indicted for possession of fentanyl with intent to distribute and federal gun charges. The incident occurred on July 15, 2026, in Orleans Parish. Walker, who has a prior felony conviction, allegedly possessed a controlled substance, namely fentanyl, while in possession of a firearm to further his drug trafficking enterprise.
According to the indictment, Walker knowingly possessed firearms, including a Glock Model 43X and a Rossi Model 85, despite being a convicted felon. His prior conviction, which was punishable by imprisonment for a term exceeding one year, subjects him to increased punishment for the current offense.
The indictment charges Walker with three counts: possession with intent to distribute a controlled substance, possession of a firearm in furtherance of a drug trafficking crime, and felon in possession of a firearm. If convicted of the first count, Walker faces up to 30 years in prison.
The case is being prosecuted by the United States Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Louisiana. The investigation was likely conducted by federal agencies such as the DEA and ATF, although the press release does not specify the agencies involved.
