Federal prosecutors announced charges against 23 individuals involved in a network that used drones to smuggle drugs into Georgia state prisons, compromising safety.
These indictments identify networks of individuals determined to introduce into prisons controlled substances and other contraband that compromise the safety and security of individuals.
Inmates utilized contraband cellphones to communicate with outside accomplices, coordinating the sale and delivery of drugs via drone airdrops into prison yards.
The smuggling operations, which began as early as 2019, included efforts to deliver items like cellphones and methamphetamine, with risks to public safety.
