STATEMENT BY U.S. ATTORNEY JOHN WALSH REGARDING GUILTY PLEA BY CHRISTOPHER BARTKOWICZ

October 21, 2010 – LawFuel.com – “Today Christopher Bartkowicz pled guilty to all three counts related to marijuana cultivation as charged by a federal grand jury. In response, the government withdrew the sentencing enhancement regarding one of the defendant’s prior felony drug convictions. If the plea agreement is ultimately accepted by the judge, Bartkowicz faces a mandatory minimum of 5 years in federal prison. That sentence is appropriate and proportionate given the circumstances of this specific crime.”
