NEW ORLEANS, LOUISIANA – Today, U.S. Attorney Duane A. Evansannounced that DERRICK WASHINGTON (“WASHINGTON”) a/k/a “Eyes,” age 53, a resident of New Orleans, pled guilty on October 9, 2024, before United States District Judge Jane Triche Milazzo to Conspiracy to Distribute and Possess with Intent to Distribute, five hundred grams or more of cocaine, announced U.S. Attorney Duane A. Evans.

According to court documents, WASHINGTON, and other co-conspirators, distributed multi-kilogram quantities of cocaine within the Eastern District of Louisiana.

During the investigation, law enforcement, led by the Drug Enforcement Administration, seized over forty (40) kilograms of cocaine, twelve (12) kilograms of fentanyl, 4.5 kilograms of heroin, and more than $1,200,00.00 in U.S. Currency and other seized property.

As to the charged count, WASHINGTON faces a mandatory minimum term of imprisonment of five (5) years up to a maximum term of forty (40) years imprisonment, a fine of up to $5,000,000.00, at least four years of supervised release following any term of imprisonment, and a mandatory special assessment fee of $100.

This prosecution is part of an Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Forces (OCDETF) investigation.  OCDETF identifies, disrupts, and dismantles the highest-level drug traffickers, money launderers, gangs, and transnational criminal organizations that threaten the United States by using a prosecutor-led, intelligence-driven, multi-agency approach that leverages the strengths of federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies against criminal networks.

This investigation was led by the Drug Enforcement Administration – New Orleans Field Division Office and was assisted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the United States Border Patrol, the Gretna Major Crimes Task Force, the Kenner Police Department, the Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office, the St. John’s Parish Sheriff’s Office, the Orleans Parish Sheriff’s Office, and the New Orleans Police Department.  The prosecution is being handled by Assistant United States Attorney Lynn E. Schiffman of the Narcotics Unit.
