Peter Charles Foy II

During the month of November 2012, the Ventura County Combined Narcotic Task Force (VCAT) received an anonymous tip that Peter Foy II was selling narcotics in Ventura County. VCAT initiated a criminal investigation into these allegations. In January of 2013, VCAT was notified by a narcotic task force out of Los Angeles County that a significant amount of U.S. currency was seized in the mail. This package was sent from Lexington Kentucky and was destined to Peter Foy II. A police K-9 alerted on the package to the presence of controlled substances. A search warrant was served on Peter Foy II’s bank account. The bank records suggested that Peter Foy II has been laundering a significant amount of cash through his bank account for at least the last three years. On 6-6-2013, the Lexington Kentucky Police Department served a narcotic related search warrant at a residence in Lexington, Kentucky. Through this search warrant and other evidence found at the residence, it was determined Peter Foy II had been shipping a significant amount of packages over a year’s period, which contained Oxycodone pills. In return, Peter Foy II was receiving a significant amount of packages through the mail over a year’s period that contained large quantities of cash. In fact, in June 2013, the U.S. Postal Service seized a second package containing a large quantity of cash that was destined to Peter Foy II’s residence. On 8-16-2013, Peter Foy II was arrested for a felony warrant for multiple felonies. The charges include transporting a controlled substance to a non-contiguous county, sales of Oxycontin, conspiracy, burglary and money laundering. Peter Foy II was booked into the Sheriff’s Pre-Trial Detention Facility. He is scheduled to appear on the warrant on 8-19-2013 in the Ventura County superior Court.
