A 49-year-old Quebec man could spend the rest of his life in a U.S. prison cell after being charged in connection with a cross-border drug trafficking investigation that resulted in the seizure of 300,000 synthetic opioid pills by the RCMP.

The Middle District of Florida U.S. Attorney’s Office has announced a federal indictment against Montreal resident Sebastien Rollin, who has been charged with conspiracy to import protonitazene, distribution of protonitazene for importation into the United States, and international promotional money laundering.
