A Jamestown-area man has been sentenced to 180 months -- or 15 years -- in federal prison for allegedly trafficking, and possessing one-kilogram or more of Heroin.  U.S. Attorney William Hochul, Jr. has announced that the sentence was handed down in U.S. District Court in Buffalo to 31 year-old Victor Anguiera of Celeron.  Hochul says Anguiera was convicted of conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute one kilogram or more of heroin... and, possession of a firearm in relation to drug trafficking activities.  He says the defendant was also ordered to forfeit $100,000 in proceeds from his drug-dealing activities.  Assistant U.S. Attorney Thomas Duszkiewicz handled the case against Anguiera... and, says he was arrested in Celoron, based on information obtained through a wiretap investigation.  Anguiera was found in 2011 by Chautauqua County Sheriff's officers with about half-a-kilogram of heroin... and, two firearms in his possession.  Further investigation of several other locations led to the seizure of additional quantities of heroin, cocaine, firearms, vehicles and about $300,000 in U.S. currency.  Anguiera and seven others were arrested in this heroin trafficking investigation.  All defendants have been convicted.
