Justin Vosicky‑McCoy Sentenced to Nine Years for Fentanyl Trafficking

Written By Joseph Casados

Raton, NM — Following a guilty verdict by a Raton jury, Eighth Judicial District Judge Steven Romero has sentenced Justin Vosicky‑McCoy to nine years in prison for trafficking a controlled substance and four years of probation for possession of various other controlled substances.

 The charges stem from an incident on April 8, 2024, when Raton Police responded to a call and conducted a thorough investigation. The investigation led to Justin Vosicky-McCoy’s house. Officers located over five hundred fentanyl pills and other controlled substances. In October 2025, a jury found Justin Vosicky McCoy guilty of Trafficking Fentanyl and possession of cocaine, oxycodone, and Alprazolam.

 At sentencing, Judge Romero described fentanyl trafficking as “a crime of exploitation” and imposed a nine-year prison sentence for trafficking.

 District Attorney Marcus J. Montoya notes the seriousness of fentanyl crimes. “A dangerous and exploitative individual is off the streets of our community,” Montoya said. “Fentanyl is poisoning and killing our family members, friends, and neighbors. These types of offenders endanger everyone to whom they deal these deadly drugs, and my office will continue taking all steps possible to pursue accountability.”
