Federal court wiretap ruling frees 12 in heroin ring case
Twelve of twelve South County suspects indicted in a 1971 million dollar heroin operation are freed after a federal wiretap ruling. The case centers on 15 pounds of heroin valued at 1.75 million seized February 27 1971 from Dolores Fernandez of Hayward. Chavez remains jailed on separate charges after being implicated in a Mexican bank partnership and suspected drug trafficking across borders. The ruling questions the legality of one wiretap and the admissibility of related evidence, with an appeal anticipated.
