Belloisi's actions abused his trusted position at JFK Airport, allowing him to smuggle over 25 pounds of cocaine into the U.S., posing a serious security threat.
U.S. Attorney Breon Peace emphasized the severity of Belloisi's conduct, highlighting that it not only harms communities through drug trafficking but also endangers border security.
The drug smuggling operation was exposed during a routine search when customs officers discovered hidden cocaine in an international aircraft's sensitive electronics compartment.
Belloisi's sentence serves as a warning that individuals in trusted airport roles face serious repercussions for engaging in criminal corruption.
