Malden man, 33, pleads guilty to federal drug trafficking charges

Sold methamphetamine and fentanyl on numerous occasions to federal undercover agents; faces 10 years to life in prison at June sentencing

A Malden man, 33, will be sentenced in June after pleading guilty on Monday in federal court to his role in a conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine, fentanyl and cocaine. Logan Pierre, a/k/a “LO,” 33, pleaded guilty to charges as follows: conspiracy to distribute and to possess with intent to distribute 500 grams and more of methamphetamine; conspiracy to distribute and possess 40 grams and more of fentanyl; conspiracy to distribute and possess 40 grams and more of cocaine.

U.S. District Court Judge Brian E. Murphy scheduled sentencing for June 5, 2025. Logan Pierre was charged along with his brother and codefendant, Isaiah Pierre in June 2024. Isaiah Pierre fled apprehension and is a fugitive.

In the fall of 2023, an investigation began into drug trafficking activities conducted by Logan and, allegedly, Isaiah Pierre. The investigation revealed that the Pierre brothers were allegedly actively selling methamphetamine in the Greater Boston area. Between October 2023 and May 2024, Logan Pierre and, allegedly, Isaiah Pierre sold or arranged the sale of a pound of methamphetamine on at least five separate controlled purchases. During a search of Logan Pierre’s apartment, an additional 1,000 grams of methamphetamine, fentanyl and cocaine was recovered.

The charge of conspiracy to distribute and to possess with intent to distribute 500 grams and more of methamphetamine, 40 grams and more of fentanyl, and cocaine provides for a sentence of a mandatory minimum term of 10 years and up to life in prison, up to a lifetime of supervised release and a fine of up to $10 million. Sentences are imposed by a federal district court judge based on the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and statutes that govern the determination of a sentence in a criminal case.

U.S. Attorney Leah B. Foley; the Special Agent in Charge of the FBI’s Boston Division, Jodi Cohen; Malden Police Chief Glenn Cronin; and Revere Police Chief David Callahan made the case announcement. Assistant U.S. Attorney John T. Dawley of the Organized Crime & Gang Unit is prosecuting the case.
