Two drug dealers who fled from the Bay Area while out on bond awaiting federal drug trafficking charges were extradited from Honduras and sentenced to prison for 82 months and 34 months by U.S. District Court judges.
Victor Viera-Chirinos, who showed a “savviness as a trafficker,” was among 14 defendants indicted in August 2019 for trafficking large quantities of heroin, methamphetamine, and cocaine in San Francisco’s infamous Tenderloin neighborhood, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office in the Northern District of California.
