Tierney Brings 109-Count Indictment in Drug Trafficking Ring By Matt Meduri In a bombshell report, Suffolk County District Attorney Ray Tierney (R) has announced a massive indictment against twenty-one defendants charged with narcotics trafficking with members of a violent criminal organization involved. On Friday, Tierney outlined the results of a long-term investigation in the large-scale narcotics trafficking within Suffolk County, which includes over 2.5 kilograms of heroin and fentanyl. Larell Campbell, 32, of Copiague, and Carolyn Tolin, 46, of Centereach, were charged with Operating as Major Traffickers. Tolin allegedly operated a narcotics business, not just within the county, but across the nation through the Dark Web right from her Centereach home. She allegedly shipped narcotics, including the deadly synthetic opioid fentanyl, through the United States Postal Service (USPS) and UPS to customers around the country. She allegedly received payments in cryptocurrency.
