Seven Men Sentenced in Indiana Drug Ring | Louisville News

A massive drug ring trafficking meth and fentanyl across Indiana and into Ohio has been dismantled after a three-year investigation, leading to seven arrests and federal prison sentences ranging from four to 19 years. Led by Jose Buval, who received 19 years for supplying drugs and guns, the operation was exposed when suspects were caught traveling to Ohio with large quantities of meth and weapons. Cesar Melendez-Martir, an undocumented immigrant, got 15 years and will be deported. The crackdown sends a clear message: involvement in violent drug trafficking — especially with firearms — carries severe consequences. This major bust is a victory for law enforcement and communities struggling with the fallout of these dangerous networks.
