Portland, Maine:  United States Attorney Thomas E. Delahanty II announced that Scot Stolkner, 44, of Gray, Maine, was sentenced in U.S. District Court by Judge Jon D. Levy to 17½ years in prison and six years of supervised release for conspiring to distribute bath salts, fentanyl, and heroin.  In addition, Stolkner was ordered to forfeit about $55,000. He pleaded guilty on April 1, 2016.

According to court records, from at least August 2014 through July 2015, Stolkner led a conspiracy that distributed bath salts, heroin, and fentanyl throughout the state. Stolkner obtained heroin and fentanyl from New Hampshire and Massachusetts suppliers and obtained bath salts through the mail from a source outside of the United States.  Stolkner distributed the drugs personally and through other conspirators.

The investigation was conducted by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration and the Scarborough and Portland Police Departments.
