Additionally, 26-year-old Kandry Guzman of Lynn, MA and 33-year-old Otilia Soto-Pena of Boston, MA were each charged with multiple counts of distribution of Fentanyl. These three individuals were members of a sophisticated drug distribution network, which preyed on residents of numerous North Shore Cities. Their criminal organization employed numerous tactics in an eff ort to deter police investigation; however, our team of dedicated investigators put forth the eff ort to dismantle their illegal network. “RPD Detectives intercepted a large amount of a deadly narcotic that was headed to the streets of Revere and our surrounding communities,” Revere Police Chief David J. Callahan said. “We are grateful for our valuable partnerships and the hard work that investigators put in to conduct these investigations along with the assistance of the Suff olk County District Attorney’s Offi ce.” In total, Revere Detectives were able to seize over 100 grams of the lethal narcotic Fentanyl along with 51 grams of crack cocaine throughout the investigation. Lara-Soto was arraigned at Chelsea District Court on February 9, 2022 where bail was set at $150,000. We thank our partners, Suffolk County Sheriff ’s Department, DEA Task Force 2, and the Boston Police Dept. for their assistance during this intensive investigation. Lawrence A.
