FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Friday, March 7, 2014

“We are gratified that the jury reached a unanimous verdict finding Rodney Johnson guilty of narcotics distribution and possession of firearms in connection with a drug conspiracy. As for the charges on which the jury was not able to reach a unanimous verdict, the Government’s contention remains that James Rosemond and Rodney Johnson are responsible for the murder of Lowell Fletcher. We are currently considering our options with respect to a retrial.”
