15 February 2019 News
The ringleader of a $1 million heroin distribution conspiracy in Fond du Lac was sentenced Thursday to 30 years in prison and 15 years of extended supervision. It’s estimated that 39-year-old Allen Ferguson was responsible for moving between 3,000 and 5,000 grams of heroin into Fond du Lac County during 2015 through 2016. District Attorney Eric Toney says, “I applaud Judge (Gary) Sharpe for imposing this sentence because heroin has devastated our community for years with the total destruction being impossible to quantify. Heroin has destroyed lives, broken apart families, ruined businesses, and left many dead in our community.” Authorities believe 7,000 grams or over 15 pounds of heroin with a street value exceeding $1 million was distributed in the Fond du Lac area between March of 2015 and February of 2017. All 11 people involved in the conspiracy have been convicted.
