Antonella Barba - Miguel - 02-13-2019
Antonella appeared with Haley in the Kimmel Show video. She was subsequently busted for distributing drugs. They've upped the charges.
Quote:Antonella Barba tried to deliver nearly two pounds of the deadly synthetic opioid fentanyl to Norfolk, Virginia in October as a member of a drug ring that also trafficked in heroin and cocaine, federal authorities allege.
...Barba, 32, was charged by federal authorities with one count of distribution and possession with intent to distribute fentanyl and one count of conspiracy, as state drug dealing charges were dropped.
...Barba was arrested about 11:30 a.m. Oct. 11 on the 500 block of Duke Street, a residential and business area in downtown Norfolk. She was charged with one count of possession of more than 100 grams of heroin with intent to distribute it.
She faced up to 40 years in prison. The federal charges she now faces carry even stiffer penalties.
Each of the two counts carries a maximum prison sentence of life - the distribution charge carries a minimum term of 10 years - if she is convicted.
...An attorney speaking on Barba's behalf after her arrest said she did not know drugs were in her rented vehicle.
