According to U.S. Attorney Ismail Ramsey's office, 27-year-old Esmun Moyses Moral-Raudales and 26-year-old Omar Zelaya made court appearances on Friday after both men were indicted by a federal jury earlier this month.

Moral-Raudales allegedly possessed more than 3,400 grams of suspected fentanyl, more than 50 grams of suspected methamphetamine and equipment for mixing and coloring fentanyl, along with $10,000 in cash and an unregistered"ghost gun.
Meanwhile, Zelaya was charged with five counts of distribution of a controlled substance, with three counts of allegedly distributing fentanyl, one count allegedly distributing cocaine and one count allegedly distributing methamphetamine.
