Federal authorities have charged eleven individuals in connection with a drug trafficking conspiracy in Dauphin County, Pennsylvania. The United States Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Pennsylvania announced that Nymele John Morgan, Anthony Reyes-Pabon, Laura Diane Snyder, Trumaine Assad Weaver, Tyshawn Lorne Jones, Moises Arroyo-Guerra, Justice Tireese Andrews, Robert Oren Bates, Jockzan Rodriguez, Alexia Ricohla Lambert, and Margarita Pabon-Torres—all residents of the Harrisburg area—are named in a superseding indictment.

United States Attorney Brian D. Miller stated that the indictment alleges the defendants conspired to distribute methamphetamine, fentanyl, and cocaine between September 1, 2023 and May 30, 2025. Additional charges include firearm possession by Weaver, Bates, and Morgan as prohibited persons and in furtherance of a drug-trafficking crime. Reyes-Pabon and Pabon-Torres are also accused of using premises to support drug trafficking activities.

The investigation was conducted by several agencies: the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Pennsylvania State Police, Pennsylvania Office of Attorney General, Dauphin County Violent Crimes Unit, and East Pennsboro Township Police. Assistant United States Attorney K. Wesley Mishoe is prosecuting the case.

According to officials, this prosecution is part of Operation Take Back America (https://www.justice.gov/dag/media/1393746/dl?inline), a national effort led by the Department of Justice targeting illegal immigration and transnational criminal organizations while aiming to reduce violent crime. The initiative coordinates resources from programs such as Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Forces (OCDETFs) and Project Safe Neighborhood (PSN).

If convicted on all charges, each defendant faces a maximum sentence of life imprisonment along with supervised release periods after incarceration and potential fines. Sentencing will be determined by federal statutes and guidelines after any finding of guilt.

Officials emphasized that indictments contain only allegations at this stage: “Superseding Indictments only contain allegations. All persons charged are presumed to be innocent unless and until found guilty in court.”
