(Anderson, SC). Luis Alonzo Ozorio pled guilty yesterday in Anderson General Sessions Court to Trafficking in Cocaine, 400 grams or more. The Honorable Lawton McIntosh sentenced Ozorio to 18 years in prison.

On July 3, 2009, Anderson County deputies conducted a traffic stop on I-85 on a Ford Explorer being driven by the defendant, a resident of the state of New York. A search of the car revealed seven hidden packages containing over 1300 grams of cocaine. Although there were other occupants in the car, Ozorio claimed full responsibility for the drugs during his plea.
