VIRGINIA — A 35-year-old Alexandria man has been sentenced to 14 years in federal prison for distributing fentanyl, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Virginia.
Alphonso Page, also known as “Zoe” and “Fonzie,” was identified by law enforcement as a narcotics distributor operating in Northern Virginia.
Court documents show that authorities conducted two controlled purchases from Page in March and April 2024, acquiring approximately 2,300 counterfeit pills containing fentanyl, with a total weight of nearly 248 grams.
Page is a career offender with a lengthy criminal record, including prior drug convictions in Arlington County. In 2008, he was convicted of distributing cocaine and an imitation controlled substance.
In 2018, he was convicted of possession with intent to distribute cocaine.
His record also includes convictions for illegal gambling, trespassing, identity theft, petit larceny, malicious shooting at a dwelling, and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.
The sentence was handed down Thursday by U.S. District Judge Patricia Tolliver Giles. The case was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Catherine Rosenberg.
This prosecution is part of Project Safe Neighborhoods, a nationwide initiative aimed at reducing violent crime and gun violence through coordinated law enforcement and community partnerships.
