HSTF CASE: A Massachusetts man was charged earlier this week with distributing synthetic opioids that resulted in a second death.
According to the charging documents, Jaden Zion Andre, 23, operated a Telegram channel called “MontanaSnacksLLC” and a Proton Mail account called “SnackSeason,” which he used to communicate with his drug customers. As part of his operation, Andre allegedly concealed his synthetic opioids in snack bags, which he then distributed through the United States mail to his customers across the country.
