Press release from the Sonoma County Government:
October 19, 2021
For Immediate Release CA
District Attorney Jill Ravitch stated, "This sentence reflects the danger posed by dealers moving large amounts of illegal narcotics. Our families and friends are at risk when these drugs hit the street. We will always advocate for and support substance abuse treatment. But we will also advocate for significant consequences for drug peddlers."
The charge resulted from a search warrant served at the Santa Rosa residence of Ortega- Aguilar earlier this year. Detectives with the Santa Rosa Police Department discovered over sixty-five pounds of methamphetamine locked in a safe within the residence. The methamphetamine was packaged in eighteen, gallon-sized, zip-lock bags. Over twenty-three thousand dollars in US currency was also seized and subsequently forfeited to the state.
The case was prosecuted by Deputy District Attorney Thomas M. Gotshall. Detective Patrick Albini of the Santa Rosa Police Department headed the investigation.
