DEMING - Antonio Jesus Carrillo, 46, has agreed to plead guilty to fentanyl trafficking charges.

According to a story first published by the Deming Headlight, the plea agreement was filed in 6th Judicial District Court on Friday.

Carrillo will plead guilty to one count of trafficking by possession with intent to distribute, a second-degree felony, and to a misdemeanor charge of resisting, evading or obstructing an officer.
​
The charges stemmed from an encounter with police on Aug. 30, 2022, while Carrillo’s parole officer was looking for him at his residence on S. Granite Street.

Carrillo allegedly tossed several blue pills over a fence while fleeing from a Deming police officer.
Later, according to the arrest affidavit, Carrillo allegedly told a Homeland Security investigator he purchased and distributed hundreds of fentanyl pills each week.
​
A hearing has been set for September.
