Daniel Donald of Worcester was convicted last year of possession with intent to distribute over 100 grams of heroin, over 500 grams of cocaine, over 28 grams of crack cocaine, and fentanyl, and being a felon in possession of a firearm, the U.S. Attorney's Office in Massachusetts said. The court ruled Donald was a "career offender" and an "armed career offender," which added to his sentence.
Donald and a partner, Robert Young, leased two apartments on Groton Street in Worcester, where they dealt drugs, federal authorities said. In 2017, officers began investigating the pair and found a kilogram of cocaine, 345 grams of heroin, 80 grams of crack, and about 200 pills containing fentanyl between an interior and exterior wall, the prosecutor said. Investigators also found a loaded 9mm pistol.
Young pleaded guilty to charges last year, federal prosecutors said, and a judge sentenced him to five years in prison.
