JOHNSTOWN, Pa. – A Indiana County resident pleaded guilty in
federal court to a charge of violating federal narcotics laws, United States
Attorney Scott W. Brady announced today.
Robert Neal Fiasco, 40, of Cherry Tree, Pa., pleaded guilty
to the indictment before United States District Judge Kim R. Gibson.
In connection with the guilty plea, on Dec. 21, 2015, Fiasco
distributed less than 100 grams of heroin.
Judge Gibson scheduled sentencing for Jan. 3, 2019, at 10
a.m. The law provides for a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison and a fine
of $1,000,000 or both. Under the Federal Sentencing Guidelines, the actual
sentence imposed would be based upon the seriousness of the offense and the
prior criminal history, if any, of the defendant.

prosecuting this case on behalf of the government.
The Laurel Highlands Resident Agency of the Federal Bureau
of Investigation and the Cambria County Drug Task Force conducted the
investigation that led to the prosecution of Fiasco.
