Five men have been charged in separate Criminal Complaints this week for allegedly conspiring to distribute heroin in the Northern District of Oklahoma, announced U.S. Attorney Trent Shores.

Pablo Soriano-Villareal, Diego Carrillo-Lopez, Felix Gil-Cardenas, David Hernandez-Perez, and Oscar Delgado-Trujillo were apprehended by authorities in Tulsa, on Wednesday, as part of a joint operation which began in June 2019. The Criminal Complaint alleges that the defendants were involved in a drug trafficking organization that sold heroin in Tulsa.

A Criminal Complaint is a set of allegations that, if the case were to proceed to trial, the government would need to prove beyond a reasonable doubt. The Drug Enforcement Administration, FBI, and Tulsa Police Department are the investigative agencies.
