SAN FRANCISCO—On Tuesday, February 17, the San Francisco District Attorney’s Office announced that three men were charged with multiple felonies in connection to narcotics trafficking in the Tenderloin. Jexcer Martinez-Torres, 28, and Yexon Sierra-Doblado, 29, were scheduled to be arraigned on Tuesday, February 17, at 1:30 p.m. in the Hall of Justice.
Alfredo Juarez, 44, was released by a magistrate on his own recognizance prior to arraignment and is scheduled to arraigned on Wednesday, February 18. Prosecutors will move to have all three individuals detained without bail because of the public safety risk they pose.
Martinez-Torres, Juarez and Sierra-Doblado are each charged with multiple felony narcotics sales related charges including possession for sale of fentanyl and methamphetamine. The criminal complaint also alleges that they were in possession of more than one ounce of fentanyl. The criminal complaint also alleges that Martinez-Torres and Sierra-Doblado committed these offenses while each released on their own recognizance on other pending felony cases in San Francisco.
