A judge in the U.S. District Court in Seattle sentenced a drug dealer to federal prison for trafficking fentanyl to patients near a Seattle methadone clinic.

At a sentencing hearing Monday morning, prosecutors said Mohamed A. Muse, 37, of Kent, sold fentanyl, cocaine and heroin to vulnerable people who were trying to overcome drug addictions.

"To intentionally target people who are trying to save themselves from the scourge of addiction makes this crime particularly reprehensible," said Assistant United States Attorney Yunah Chung.

According to court filings, investigators identified Muse as one of the primary drug traffickers in the area of South Airport Way and Holgate Street, steps away from the Evergreen Treatment Services clinic.

    That guy looks very much like the guy I saw downtown at the bus stop selling drugs. I told him he should be ashamed of himself pushing that crap. My how the times have changed. I'm a Karen and he's a victim.
  • @LGmarge
    30 months. He'll be right back at it.
  • @tjtebbs9221
    Our DA will set his bail at $20 and eventually let him off with 2 weeks probation and he'll be right back on that same corner.

    Methadone Clinics should be held responsible for taking advantage of addicts. It is not a program that shows good success, but people make money from it, including 501(c)3 organizations and drug dealers.

    Yes, a victim of stupidity as most folks know that fast money has a price in which he will now have his cloths, food, and sleeping arrangements provided for him now. I got more respect for front liner workers who make coffee and work in fast food than this type of person. Legit.
