federal grand jury indictment alleges Michael Olsen, 35, of Milton, ran the drug ring involving over 5 kilograms of cocaine and 5 grams of crack from out of Rizzo Bros. auto detailing shop, which did little legitimate business, the office of the U.S. Attorney for Vermont said.
Olsen is accused of directing others to mail cash, usually over $20,000, to dealers in California and Arizona, who then had the cocaine sent to other locations in Vermont, where it was distributed, prosecutors said.
Andrew Bullock, 29, of Essex Junction; Matthew Rivers, 24, of South Burlington; Roddy Superneau, 45, of Colchester; Sonya Robar, 36, or Essex Junction; Joel Root, 36, of St. Albans; Melissa Root, 39, of St. Albans; and Jason Smith, 31, of Burlington are facing drug distribution charges.
Olsen, Allison Simpson, 38, of South Burlington and Melissa Stuart, 33, of Colchester are accused of money laundering in alleged schemes in which drug money was deposited into a business bank account from which paychecks were drawn and vehicles were purchased with drug proceeds and kept in other people’s names, prosecutor said.
Olsen and a telephone company employee also are charged with accessing phone records of Drug Enforcement Administration agents so that Olsen could determine which witnesses were talking with the DEA, the indictment said.
