Baltimore, Maryland – U.S. District Judge J. Frederick Motz sentenced Ronald Francis Wosk, Jr., age 30, of Baltimore, Maryland, today to seven years in prison, followed by four years of supervised release, for conspiracy to distribute and possess with intent to distribute heroin and cocaine.
The sentence was announced by United States Attorney for the District of Maryland Rod J. Rosenstein; Assistant Special Agent in Charge Don A. Hibbert of the Drug Enforcement Administration, Baltimore District Office; and Anne Arundel County Police Chief Tim Altomare.
According to his plea agreement, from at least March 2014 through July 2014, Wosk and other members of the conspiracy obtained heroin and crack cocaine from Alex Valerio and other co-conspirators in Maryland and re-distributed them to others. During the conspiracy, investigators intercepted phone calls between Wosk and Valerio discussing purchases of heroin, and saw Wosk and Valerio meet multiple times.
Ten other co-conspirators, including Alex Raymond Valerio, age 36, of Glen Burnie, Maryland, pleaded guilty to their roles in the conspiracy and were sentenced to between time served and 92 months in prison.
United States Attorney Rod J. Rosenstein commended the DEA and Anne Arundel County Police Department for their work in the investigation. Mr. Rosenstein thanked Assistant U.S. Attorney Kenneth S. Clark, who prosecuted this Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force case.
