“This case is another great example of our continued efforts to disrupt and dismantle the criminal behavior of outlaw motorcycle gangs, which can promote illicit drug trafficking and bring violence into our neighborhoods,” said Harold H. Shaw, Special Agent in Charge of the FBI Boston Division, in a press statement. “I'm proud of the hard work and long hours the members of the FBI's Safe Streets Gang Task Force put into this case. We are committed to working as a law enforcement team and maximizing our resources in order to protect the citizens of the Granite State."

Bolton, according to court filings, sold cocaine on 11 separate occasions Bedford, Goffstown, Milford, Weare, and Wilton. He is the president of Milford & Company Motorcycle Club.

“The U.S. Attorney’s Office is working each day with our law enforcement partners to combat drug trafficking in New Hampshire,” said Acting U.S. Attorney Farley. “Those who choose to sell drugs in the Granite State will be held accountable for their conduct.”

Bolton will be sentenced early next year.
