Mother and Son Indicted for Drug Conspiracy and Money Laundering

Gregory J. Haanstad, United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Wisconsin, announced that on June 6, 2023, a federal grand jury returned a two-count indictment alleging that Moises Gonzalez-Rodriguez (age: 20) and Blanca E. Rodriguez (age: 52) of Green Bay, Wisconsin, conspired to distribute fentanyl in violation of Title 21, United States Code, Sections 841(a)(1), 841(b)(1)(A), and 846. The indictment also alleges that Blanca Rodriguez laundered the proceeds of the drug sales in violation of Title 18, United States Code, Section 1956(a)(1)(B)(i). Blanca Rodriguez is the mother of Moises Gonzalez-Rodriguez.

If convicted of the drug conspiracy charge, each defendant faces a mandatory 10 years’ imprisonment and up to a life sentence. Rodriguez also faces up to 20 years’ imprisonment if convicted of the money laundering offense.

This case was investigated by the Brown County Drug Task Force and the United States Postal Inspection Service. It will be prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Daniel R. Humble.

An indictment is only a charge and is not evidence of guilt.  The defendants are presumed innocent and are entitled to a fair trial at which the government must prove them guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.
