Prosecutors allege Ryan Morton, 27, was a mid-level dealer when the criminal organization run by Mario "Five Cent" Sincennes moved into town in an attempt to take over the drug trade in Brockville, Gananoque and Prescott between October 2007 and July 2009.
Morton pleaded guilty to four conspiracy charges. Those charges included conspiracy to traffic cocaine for the benefit of a criminal organization, conspiracy to commit assault causing bodily harm for the benefit of a criminal organization and conspiracy to possess the proceeds of crime.
Federal prosecutor Allyson Ratsoy said she planned to seek a six-to seven-year prison sentence for Morton, who is expected to have a sentencing hearing May 19 and 20.
Morton is the ninth person to plead guilty in connection with the drug ring.
