Winter Park Man Sentenced to Over 14 Years’ Imprisonment for Drug Trafficking Offenses

Orlando, Florida - Henry Baker (30, Winter Park) has been sentenced by U.S. District Judge Julie Sneed to 14 years and 8 months in federal prison for conspiring to distribute fentanyl, distributing and possessing with intent to distribute fentanyl, possessing with intent to distribute methamphetamine, and possession with intent to distribute cocaine. Baker pleaded guilty on January 6, 2026. United States Attorney Gregory W. Kehoe made the announcement.

According to court documents, Baker and his grandfather, Arthur Bradshaw, were members of a drug trafficking organization (DTO) that distributed fentanyl, methamphetamine, cocaine, and bromazolam (a synthetic drug used to make counterfeit Xanax tablets) in Central Florida. During the Drug Enforcement Administration's (DEA) investigation of Baker and Bradshaw, an undercover agent purchased 9,000 counterfeit fentanyl-laced pills from Baker and Bradshaw over the course of four controlled purchases during the summer of 2024. The transactions took place in Winter Park, Sanford, and Casselberry.

On September 24, 2024, a federal search warrant was executed at the Winter Park apartment that Baker and Bradshaw shared, resulting in the seizure of 1,069 grams of methamphetamine, 17 grams of fentanyl, 85 grams of cocaine, and 803 grams of bromazolam. Just before executing the search warrant, Baker and Bradshaw were arrested by DEA agents as they were leaving the apartment.

The case against Arthur Bradshaw remains pending.

This case was investigated by the DEA, the Brevard County Sheriff's Office - Special Investigations Unit, and the Seminole County Sheriff's Office- City County Investigative Bureau. It is being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Kaley Austin-Aronson.
