Undercover cocaine sting targets Bracebridge dealer 

A Bracebridge dealer who sold to undercover police was in a Bracebridge courtroom recently.

Kris Pfluegl, 32, pled guilty to trafficking cocaine and possession of the proceeds of crime.

Court heard that the OPP received a tip that someone was trafficking cocaine “at or near” a downtown Bracebridge bar.

The OPP initiated surveillance of the bar and on May 30, 2024, the OPP began to infiltrate the social network of the establishment, court heard.

There, the undercover officers encountered Pfluegl, who told them he sold cocaine for a living. Pfluegl agreed to sell to the undercover officer and a deal was done in one of the washrooms for 3.1g of cocaine, the court heard.

On June 26, the officer purchased 29 g of cocaine and Pfluegl was subsequently arrested for trafficking.

Pfluegl was ultimately sentenced to six months of house arrest, three months under curfew and 12 months of probation.

    House arrest!? Wonder how many peoples death this low life is responsible for? Cocaine often contains fentanol, the drug responsible for thousands of deaths in Canada, and hundreds of thousands world wide.
