Ventura County – Narcotics Arrest

Detectives from the Ventura County Sheriff’s Office initiated an investigation targeting the drug trafficking activities of a former Oxnard resident Jose Delgado. During this three-month investigation, Detectives learned Delgado was working within a larger drug trafficking organization (DTO) responsible for the distribution of bulk quantities of methamphetamine, heroin and counterfeit prescription medications containing fentanyl to residents of Ventura County.  Jose Delgado coordinated these drug shipments and deliveries from Tijuana Mexico.  Investigators learned this DTO was responsible for the smuggling of bulk quantities of narcotics from Mexico into the United States using the southwest border.  Once in the United States, the narcotics were then transported and stored in safe houses located in the greater Los Angeles area, operated by subjects such as Michelle Miranda and Sigiwilfredo Quezada. Jose Delgado utilized drug couriers, such as Felix Aispuro, Bryan Arechiga, Michelle Miranda and Edgar Perez to transport the narcotics to other co-conspirators to include Jose Chavez in Ventura County. Once in Ventura County, Jose Chavez distributed the narcotics to street level drug dealers and users.   For further information, please click the following link: https://local.nixle.com/alert/9667814/
