Evolution fentanyl vendor busted

www.oregonlive.com/portland/index.ssf/2015/03/three_od_on_dangerous_drug_smu.html#incart_2box

Investigators interviewed Ryan Jensen, who lived in the house. Jensen admitted he bought illegal drugs on the Internet dark site "Evolution" and logged in to the encrypted members-only site to buy 1 gram of fentanyl and 12 grams of heroin, according to the affidavit.

Authorities accuse Jensen of selling 250 milligrams of fentanyl to two friends, including overdose victim Henke.

Investigators say they logged into Jensen's Evolution account, finding that he had made six illegal purchases from the site, including a Dec. 7 shipment from a Southeast Portland man later identified as Brandon Hubbard, Channing Lacey's boyfriend.

Members of the drug task force later bought bitcoin, a form of decentralized Internet currency, and opened an undercover account to purchase 100 milligrams of fentanyl citrate from Hubbard, listing their return address as a post office box in Fargo, North Dakota.

Investigators from the Portland and Grand Forks task forces secretly tailed Hubbard, watching him use a Bitcoin kiosk in the food court of the Pioneer Place Mall in Portland. They also uncovered records showing that Hubbard made two bitcoin exchanges in late January totaling $14,580, according to Gino's affidavit.

On Jan. 21, agents tailed Hubbard's brand new Volkswagen GTI as he drove to a Postal Annex, bought packaging items and returned to his home. They noticed that as he approached his house, he began to drive in a big circle as if to expose anyone who might be following him.

Later that day, agents tailed him to a U.S. postal facility near Portland International Airport and watched him mail nine envelopes to people across the United States.

In the first minutes of Jan. 22, authorities raided Hubbard's studio apartment, finding 100 grams of fentanyl citrate, scales, packaging materials, mailing envelopes and cash, according to the affidavit.

They also arrested Hubbard, who told them he had sold more than 400 grams of fentanyl on Internet dark sites, authorities say.

I'd imagine the Feds would have had a bit more trouble finding him IF HE HADNT USED HIS REAL RETURN ADDRESS.

Wow. This guy is definitely pdxblack I'd put money on it... never order his fent or tried fentanyl but pretty sure from the looks of it. I remember he had fent citrate listings up a lot, and he was always in the heroin threads when I used to use. Not many people liked him lol from what I could tell, he kind of had a mean demeanor. Sad to see he got busted tho... but using his actual return address like WTF? who does that.

this Ryan Jensen kid's fucking 20 years old too, just like Shiny-Flakes... source: http://bismarcktribune.com/news/state-and-regional/number-of-defendants-charged-in-fentanyl-overdoses-up-to/article_bff7e8bd-e0f9-5e13-bc2b-6d97cac2e2f6.html

edit:sorry hubbard seems to be pdxblack not jensen didn't read it all correctly. This Ryan Jensen kid is just a street dealer who used the dnms to buy the shit from pdxblack.. my apologies.... very interesting article

DISCLAIMER: DONT FUCKING DO FENTANYL ITS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND NOT EVEN WORTH THE HIGH

if you check out his agora account... it's under scamming/restricted investigation but I don't think he meant to scam them it's just that he got fucked by LE and hasn't logged in...

And these guys admitted everything pre-trial, as if the prosecutor could offer them some sort of deal. Fucking dumb.

If you get busted, get a lawyer and SHUT YOUR MOUTH. There is nothing you can say that will help you at that point, it will (likely) only weaken your defense.

Who in the right mind uses a Bitcoin ATM at a shopping mall? Those machines record users and also require scan of ID or passport. From there any police can get a warrant to obtain bitcoin address associated with the user/transaction.


[4 Points] Warchemix:

Damn they pretty much recorded his entire operation. He's so fucked. Anyone wanna guess which vendor this was ?

The saddest thing is that those sneaky cowards will be called heroes.


[6 Points] FriendlyDrugAddict:

I'm confused, how did they know who to follow?


[2 Points] None:

Please tell me this was OregonTrail!

I think vendors who betray their states in usernames are really quite dumb.

And you wonder why people get a bad impression of the DNM, it is the idiots who confess to using it, it's the idiots who help write the narrative as to what it represents!!!
