## Resource

A former Bismarck resident faces separate charges of unlawful sexual contact with a child from 2017, while also battling federal drug trafficking convictions tied to the Sinaloa cartel — including possession of thousands of pounds of cocaine and meth, allegedly driven by his wife’s addiction. Arrested in Fargo, he pleaded not guilty to the sexual contact charges and was already convicted for drug conspiracy, with sentencing pending. The case also sparked debate over presidential pardons — notably, he wouldn’t qualify under Trump’s criteria since he hasn’t completed his sentence.
