ANOTHER MEMBER OF A FAMILY-RUN TAOS COUNTY HEROIN RING HAS PLEADED GUILTY IN FEDERAL COURT TO A DRUG TRAFFICKING CHARGE. THE U.S. ATTORNEYS OFFICE IN ALBUQUERQUE SAYS 35 YEAR OLD JUANITA ROMERO IS THE EIGHTH OF NINE DEFENDANTS TO ENTER A GUILTY PLEA.
ROMERO FACES UP TO 33 MONTHS IN PRISON. PROSECUTORS SAY A MULTI-AGENCY TASK FORCE CRACKED THE CASE FOLLOWING A 15 MONTH INVESTIGATION.
