Stumble It!JUNEAU, Alaska -- A jury found two men guilty of running a large drug smuggling operation.
Aaron Washington and Vonnie Williams were convicted Thursday on organized crime charges. The jury found them guilty in more than two-thirds of 35 felony counts, including operating a continuing criminal enterprise.
Williams and Washington ran a multiyear drug-smuggling and drug-dealing operation that used several people to smuggle cocaine on to commercial flights to Juneau, prosecutors said.
The estimated street value the pair smuggled in or dealt from 2003 to 2007 was nearly $1.7 million, according to Juneau District Attorney Doug Gardner.

They are toast. That continuing criminal enterprise is a bad charge. If you dont believe it, ask the Collettes.
One Collette is not around to answer the question.
These guys must have not been on the "approved" list or selling to someone other than just the lawmakers.
