Federal prosecutors filed the three-count indictment against Andrew Fahie and co-accused Oleanvine Maynard and her son Kadeem Maynard on Wednesday.  In addition to the possible prison terms, the three accused could also have their assets seized.

The indictment also calls for the forfeiture of any property belonging to the defendants derived from the conspiracy.
