CONCORD - A Farmington man has pleaded guilty in federal court to fentanyl trafficking charges, United States Attorney Scott W. Murray announced today.

According to court documents and statements made in court, Kyle Leavy, 32, sold fentanyl last fall to an individual who was cooperating with the FBI on three separate occasions at locations in Rochester.
During the third drug deal, Leavy sold more than 40 grams of fentanyl.

Leavy pleaded guilty to three counts of distributing a controlled substance. He is scheduled to be sentenced in October.

"Fentanyl traffickers pose a substantial risk to public safety," said Murray. "Because this deadly substance has caused major damage to our community, we will work tirelessly with our law enforcement partners to identify and prosecute those who are responsible for distributing fentanyl in the Granite State."

The case was investigated by the FBI New Hampshire Safe Streets Gang Task Force. The Task Force is comprosed of the FBI, the New Hampshire State Police, New Hampshire Probation and Parole, and the Police Departments of Hudson, Manchester, and Nashua.
