‘Significant fentanyl dealer’ from Everett sentenced to prison

A 40-year-old man from Everett was sentenced to six years in prison for dealing fentanyl, according to a news release from the U.S. Attorney’s Office Monday.

Lamin Saho, aka “Buck,” who the attorney’s office called a “significant fentanyl dealer,” was identified in a wiretap investigation that ended with 14 arrests in 2025.

“Mr. Saho distributed thousands of fentanyl pills – the calls recorded on the wiretap indicated he had access to as many as 10,000 pills at a time,” U.S. Attorney Charles Floyd stated via the release. “Each one of those pills had the potential of killing the user.
