MURFREESBORO, Tenn (WTVF) — A nearly two-year undercover investigation into drugs, gangs, and guns has dismantled a major trafficking network stretching from Nashville to Murfreesboro, resulting in more than 30 indictments, including charges of second-degree murder.

The investigation began in late 2023, after a Murfreesboro man died from a fentanyl overdose. Detectives with Murfreesboro Police, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, and Metro Police quickly identified multiple suppliers, seizing fentanyl powder and pills during search warrants.

"The individuals under indictment were part of a drug trafficking organization that distributed large quantities of deadly fentanyl onto the streets of our communities," Lt. Matthew Boguskie of the Metro Nashville Police Dept. said.
