 FBI Director Kash Patel, U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Ohio Dominick Gerace, and agents from the FBI and the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) announced the charges during a press conference in Cincinnati. 

“Today’s announcement marks a first-of-its-kind international operation for the FBI targeting the fentanyl plague that has killed tens of thousands of Americans and indicting the companies and individuals in mainland China that manufacture the precursor chemicals fueling the destruction of our communities,” Patel said in a statement. 

“This operation has already seized enough fentanyl powder to kill 70 million Americans and enough fentanyl pills to kill another 270,000. And we have now indicted the Chinese precursor companies and exposed the funding streams that facilitate this deadly trade.” 

Eric Michael Payne, 39, of Tipp City, Ohio, was
arrested on Aug. 22.
