A wanted killer has been sentenced
BURLINGTON – A wanted killer, who came from Hartford, Conn. to the Northeast Kingdom to set up a major drug trafficking business four years ago, has been sentenced in U.S. District Court to almost 13 ½ years in prison for drug and gun charges. Jayquan “Jay” Flintroy, 30, was part of one of the most dangerous and prolific drug distribution conspiracies in recent years in Vermont, according to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. Chief Federal Judge Christina Reiss ordered Flintroy to serve 100 months in prison for conspiracy to distribute fentanyl and crack cocaine in the Orleans County region between January 2020 and January 2021. Reiss also imposed a consecutive mandatory 60-month prison term for using and carrying a firearm while trafficking drugs in the fall of 2020.
