North Stonington Woman Admits Trafficking Crystal Meth

Vanessa Roberts Avery, United States Attorney for the District of Connecticut, and Robert Fuller, Special Agent in Charge of the New Haven Division of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, announced that JILL MULLIGAN, 43, of North Stonington, waived her right to be indicted and pleaded guilty today before U.S. District Judge Stefan R. Underhill in Bridgeport to possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine.

According to court documents and statements made in court, in April and May 2023, the FBI’s Northern Connecticut Gang Task Force made three controlled purchases of crystal meth from Mulligan.  On May 4, 2023, court authorized searches of Mulligan’s North Stonington residence and her vehicle revealed approximately 390 grams of crystal meth, and quantities of crack cocaine, LSD, and prescription pills.  Mulligan was arrested on that date.

Judge Underhill scheduled sentencing for January 24, 2024, at which time Mulligan faces a maximum term of imprisonment of 20 years.

Mulligan is released on a $100,000 bond pending sentencing.

This investigation is being conducted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Northern Connecticut Gang Task Force, which includes members of the FBI, Hartford Police Department, East Hartford Police Department, New Britain Police Department, West Hartford Police Department, Connecticut State Police and Connecticut Department of Correction.  The case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney A. Reed Durham.
