A Portersville man is facing up to 20 years in prison after pleading guilty to federal drug charges.
51-year-old Raymond Chrzanowski pleaded guilty in court this morning to three counts of conspiracy to distribute cocaine and heroin.
The Department of Justice says a wiretap investigation revealed that from late 2017 to June 2018, Chrzanowski and co-conspirators cooked powder cocaine into crack cocaine with the intention to distribute the drugs.
The wiretap was a part of an investigation into Pittsburgh street gangs and drug trafficking.
Chrzanowski will be sentenced in February of 2020—he is facing up to 20 years in prison, a fine of one million dollars—or possibly both.
