Homestead Man Pleads Guilty to Possessing Multiple Drugs

PITTSBURGH -A former resident of Homestead, Pennsylvania, pleaded guilty in federal court to a violation of federal narcotics laws, United States Attorney Scott W. Brady announced today.

Arrmon Davon Hagans, 38, pleaded guilty to one count before United States District Judge Nora Barry Fischer.

In connection with the guilty plea, the court was advised that on March 23, 2018, police executed a search warrant at Hagans’ residence in Homestead, Pennsylvania. There they located quantities of fentanyl and the fentanyl analogue para-fluoroisobutyryl fentanyl, as well as a separate mixture that contained heroin, fentanyl and cocaine. Law enforcement officers also located over $3,700 in cash and a box of ammunition.

Judge Fischer scheduled sentencing for Thursday, November 21, 2019 at 9 a.m. Because the defendant has been previously convicted of another felony drug offense, the law provides for a total sentence of up to 30 years in prison, a fine of not more than $2,000,000, or both. Under the Federal Sentencing Guidelines, the actual sentence imposed is based upon the seriousness of the offense and the prior criminal history of the defendant.

The defendant remains in jail pending the sentencing hearing.

Assistant United States Attorney Robert C. Schupansky is prosecuting this case on behalf of the government.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation – Western District of Pennsylvania Opioid Task Force conducted the investigation leading to the conviction in this case. This Task Force is comprised of FBI Special Agents and state and local Task Force Officers, including officers from the Pittsburgh Bureau of Police, Allegheny County Sheriff’s Department, Allegheny County Police, Port Authority Police, Munhall Police Department, West Mifflin Police Department, Stowe Township Police Department, McKees Rocks Police Department, and Pennsylvania Attorney General’s Office.
