CONCORD, N.H. – Jimmy F. Ambrosi, 32, of Lowell, Massachusetts, was sentenced in United States District Court for the District of New Hampshire to 57 months in prison for conspiracy to distribute controlled substances and five counts of distribution of cocaine base (crack) and cocaine, announced United States Attorney John P. Kacavas.

            The Hampton Police Department and the New Hampshire Drug Task Force conducted an investigation of the sale of illegal drugs in the Hampton Beach area, targeting a cocaine trafficking and distribution network in which Jimmy F.

The case was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Debra M. Walsh.
