Antonie Albert Eaddy, a 49-year-old man from Arizona with connections to Florida, has pleaded guilty to federal drug conspiracy charges involving large amounts of cocaine, fentanyl, crack cocaine, and marijuana.
Eaddy’s drug operation, based in Arizona, extended to several states, including Florida, with Miami being a key location in the distribution network.
Investigators found that Eaddy used the postal service to send fentanyl pills to associates in Miami as part of a larger operation that trafficked drugs across the southeastern U.S., including South Carolina.
Law enforcement intercepted drug shipments and uncovered a network of couriers moving narcotics between states.
This case is part of an Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Forces OCDETF investigation aimed at dismantling high-level drug trafficking operations. OCDETF employs a collaborative, intelligence-driven approach with federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies.
Eaddy faces life in prison, a fine of up to $10 million, and at least five years of supervised release. Three of his co-conspirators, also linked to Florida, have pleaded guilty and are awaiting sentencing.
