Seven people, most from the Northwoods, have been indicted on eight federal charges for distributing Oxycodone.

The U.S. Attorney in Green Bay filed the felony charges against 34 year old Lance Bruette of Minocqua; 38 year old Frank Lawrence of St. Germain; 29 year old Mitchell Plantikow of Woodruff; 52 year old Troy Plantikow of Woodruff; 31 year old Lacey Stanick of Woodruff and 57 year old Orvin Kay of Milwaukee.

In a related matter, last week a grand jury returned a three-count indictment against 31 year old Lee Hueckstaedt of Rhinelander for possessing the drug with intent to deliver.

The criminal complaint alleges certain defendants from the Northwoods would drive to Milwaukee and pick up hundreds of Oxycodone pills and distribute them.

The maximum penalty for all charges is 20 years in prison and a $1,000,000 fine. Three local law enforcement agencies along with state and federal law enforcement were involved in the investigation.
