“One kilogram of fentanyl has the potential to kill 500,000 people.  This lethality of synthetic opioids is simply staggering, and my Office will continue to prioritize prosecuting those who seek to profit by preying on our communities,” said United States Attorney Christopher R. Kavanaugh.

During the search, officers recovered 10,181 Fentanyl pills, 1.1 kilograms of Fentanyl powder, over 5 kilograms of methamphetamine, 360 grams of cocaine, and nearly a kilogram of heroin

“Fentanyl continues to flood our country at an alarming rate and our Virginia communities are not immune from its devastation. By arresting Mr. Woodson and removing this poison from our streets, we are effectively saving many lives. We will continue to work with our local and state partners to interdict the distribution of fentanyl wherever it may occur and bring to justice those who are driving the Crisis,” said Jarod Forget, Special Agent in Charge for the DEA Washington Division.

According to court documents, in late 2022, the Jefferson Area Drug Task Force (JADE) and the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) began investigating Woodson. On October 6, 2022, JADE officers executed a search warrant at Woodson’s residence. During the search, officers recovered 10,181 Fentanyl pills, 1.1 kilograms of Fentanyl powder, over 5 kilograms of methamphetamine, 360 grams of cocaine, and nearly a kilogram of heroin. In addition, law enforcement recovered six firearms, including an AR-style rifle, and $12,885 in cash.
