A Fort Worth man has been sentenced to 40 years in prison after authorities found him to be in possession of more than 244 kilograms of methamphetamine, among other drugs and firearms.
According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office, 31-year-old Evaristo Hidrogo was sentenced on June 26, 2026, by Chief United States District Judge Reed O’Connor for possessing with intent to distribute a controlled substance.
“This lengthy prison sentence serves as a warning to anyone distributing narcotics in the Northern District of Texas,” said U.S. Attorney Ryan Raybould. “We will continue to work with our law enforcement partners to identify and prosecute drug traffickers, as we remain committed to make the communities in which we live safer.”
Court records show that in 2025 Hidrogo was involved in a high-speed chase with law enforcement where he crashed into another vehicle and still attempted to flee from officers.
Hidrogo was found with 56 grams of methamphetamine on him during his arrest. Another 823 grams of methamphetamine, 301 grams of heroin, 55 grams of cocaine, and two firearms were found in his vehicle.
As law enforcement continued to investigate, they found two more locations: a storage facility in Fort Worth and a residence. Both locations led authorities to seize additional narcotics and a firearm that were attributed to Hidrogo.
244 kilograms of methamphetamine with a purity level of 100% were found at the storage facility in Fort Worth.
Approximately 10 kilograms of methamphetamine and two kilograms of heroin were found at a residence.
“This 480-month sentence of Mr. Hidrogo sends an unmistakable message to those who flood North Texas communities with methamphetamine, you will be held accountable,” said DEA Dallas Special Agent in Charge Joseph B. Tucker.
