Grand jury indicts 22 in 10-year cocaine ring

Grand jury indicts 22 in 10-year cocaine ring: "Montel Staples, 41, of West Mifflin, the former coach; 55-year-old Dennis Haenze and 36-year-old Earl Lamar of Pittsburgh; and Urian R. Jones, 34, of Duquesne. All four are charged with conspiring to distribute five or more kilograms of cocaine.
In addition to coaching, Mr. Staples was a paraprofessional in the elementary school in the district until he resigned last fall. He was hired as part of a team that focused on students who are struggling in the classroom because of emotional, behavioral or disciplinary issues.
The 22 are accused of being a part of 'a 10-year-long conspiracy to distribute cocaine and launder monetary instruments,' according to a news release from the Department of Justice. The grand jury handed up the indictment June 15.
All of those indicted except one could face life in prison, an $8 million fine, or both, if convicted."
