Audiencia de Pontevedra Convicts 21 in Vigo Drug Clan After Plea Hearing

A mitigation for very qualified undue delays led to mostly suspended terms.

Overview

  • Defendants admitted the charges in a plea session before the court’s Fifth Section in Vigo, resulting in combined penalties of about 30 years.
  • The family-led network operated narcopisos and supplier links in the A Doblada area during December 2020 and January 2021.
  • Most prison sentences were conditionally suspended for two years, with community service orders, detox treatment requirements, and fines reaching €15,000.
  • Individual terms topped out at two years and nine months, and the leaders with prior convictions received reduced penalties under the delay mitigation.
  • One of the 22 accused failed to appear and is subject to a search-and-arrest warrant, and the convicted include Samuel D. F., linked to a fatal crash on Jenaro de la Fuente.
