Concord, NH - MAINE MAN PLEADS GUILTY TO FENTANYL TRAFFICKING


Donald Fillmore, 42, of Exeter, Maine, pleaded guilty in federal court to possessing over 400 grams of fentanyl with intent to distribute.

According to court documents and statements made in court, on November 14, 2017, members of the New Hampshire State Police conducted a routine traffic stop and encountered Fillmore. Pursuant to a consent search, the troopers recovered approximately 714 grams of fentanyl, which Fillmore admitted belonged to him.

Fillmore is scheduled to be sentenced on February 4, 2019.

“Fentanyl trafficking exposes the citizens of our state to grave risks with regard to their health and well-being” said U.S. Attorney Murray. “I am grateful to the State Police for their work in this case, which prevented a large amount of this dangerous drug from being distributed. By stopping drug traffickers from distributing fentanyl and other opioids, we are improving public safety and saving lives.”

This matter was investigated by the New Hampshire State Police.
