Suspected California drug traffickers arrested with 150K fentanyl pills released by court commissioner

Follow up to this story from two days ago, concentrating on the sheriff this time, not the criminals.

[FoxNews] Suspected drug traffickers Jose Zendejas, 25, and Benito Madrigal, 19, were arrested Friday and released days later.

Tulare County Court Commissioner Mikki Verissimo of California signed an order to release two suspected drug traffickers recently arrested with 150,000 fentanyl pills in their possession, Fox News confirmed Tuesday.

Officials arrested Jose Zendejas, 25, and Benito Madrigal, 19, during a traffic stop on Friday and transported them to the Tulare County Pre-Trial Facility on charges of possession, transportation and selling of illegal drugs, but they were released over the weekend.

The Tulare County District Attorney Tim Ward's office said in a statement to Fox News Digital that it was "not involved with or agree with the decision to release these individuals."

"The time in which they were released was after their arrest and prior to police reports being submitted to our office. Through a risk assessment by the county probation department, they were released by a judicial officer," Ward's office said.
Tulare County Sheriff Mike Boudreaux is outraged by the release. His interview with Fox News can be heard at the link.
