Indictment of William “Willy Wonka” Rodriguez on Sale of a Controlled Drug Charges

Concord, NH – Attorney General John M. Formella announces that William “Willy Wonka” Rodriguez (age 53) of Lawrence, Massachusetts, has been indicted by the Hillsborough County Grand Jury on five counts of Sale of a Controlled Drug.

Mr. Rodriguez was indicted on three counts of Sale of a Controlled Drug for selling a quantity of suboxone to a confidential informant. He was also indicted on two counts of Sale of a Controlled Drug for selling fentanyl in a quantity greater than five grams to a confidential informant.

An arraignment on these charges will be scheduled in the Hillsborough County Superior Court-Southern District at a later date.

The investigation of this case was the result of collaborative efforts of the New Hampshire Attorney General’s Office, Investigators with the New Hampshire Department of Corrections in Berlin, and members of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

The charges and allegations against Mr. Rodriguez are merely accusations, and he is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.
