Binghamton Man Admits Peddling Cocaine and Cocaine Base

Federal Prosecutors say a Binghamton man admits that he conspired with others to acquire cocaine and cocaine base from suppliers in Broome County and New York City and cooked the cocaine into cocaine base that was sold.

Officials say 30 year old Anthony Randolph pleaded guilty February 2 to drug trafficking and possession of a firearm and ammunition by a convicted felon.

The FBI, Binghamton Police, New York State Police and Broome County Drug Task Force assisted the U.S. Attorney’s office in the investigation.

Authorities say Randolph admitted in Federal Court that he and others used cell phones and vehicles to take orders from customers and deliver cocaine base until authorities searched Randolph’s home in November 2015 and seized 55 grams of cocaine base, a .40 caliber pistol and ammunition.

He will be sentenced in June and faces 20 years to up to life in prison and a fine of up to $20 million.
