SAN FRANCISCO -- A San Francisco man convicted of trafficking tens of thousands of dollars worth of drugs monthly received a 160-month prison term, prosecutors announced Friday.
The evidence at the trial showed Alvarez managed a sophisticated drug distribution operation out of his apartment on Sanchez Street in the city's Noe Valley neighborhood. Police investigators learned someone who went by the name"Chewy" was selling heroin and others drugs and developed evidence to obtain a search warrant at the apartment.
Text messages between Alvarez and his customers - which included names, transaction dates, drug quantities, and drug types - matched up with a ledger that showed an operation capable of distributing hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of drugs annually. In the week before his arrest the ledger showed Alvarez sold $15,300 worth of methamphetamine and heroin.
