Franklin Hernandez-Turcios, a Honduran national, was sentenced to three years in prison for drug-related offenses, including fentanyl sales, after being deported three times. His history of drug arrests began in 2016, and he pleaded guilty to selling fentanyl to an undercover officer. The case highlights his struggle with substance abuse linked to financial issues and health care access. Following his prison term, he faces another deportation and intends to find work in construction. The situation raises concerns about the cycle of drug dependency and immigration enforcement.
U.S. District Judge William Orrick sentenced Hernandez-Turcios to two concurrent three-year federal prison terms for fentanyl sales and illegal re-entry, after multiple deportations.
Hernandez-Turcios has a history of drug-related arrests, demonstrating a pattern of criminal behavior that has persisted despite his prior deportations from the U.S.
