Fox News
Veterans receiving care for substance abuse at a Massachusetts VA facility were targeted by two men who sought to sell them fentanyl, according to the Department of Justice.
The Justice Department accuses Deiby Bladimil Casado Ruiz, known as "El Bebo," and Pedro Antonio Sanchez Bernabel of attempting to distribute fentanyl to veterans at the facility over a three-month period earlier this year. If convicted, the duo could face a mandatory minimum sentence of 5 to 40 years for conspiracy to distribute 40 grams or more of fentanyl. Michael Lee is a writer at Fox News.

"What these two men are accused of doing is absolutely appalling," Joseph R. Bonavolonta, a special agent in the Federal Bureau of Investigation, said in the release. "We believe they targeted veterans who have valiantly defended our country's freedoms and are now seeking treatment for their substance abuse disorder, and plied them with fentanyl, a deadly narcotic 50-100 times stronger than morphine."
