Utah business owner in jail following narcotics bust

A judge ruled Friday that a Utah business owner must remain in jail after his legal team unsuccessfully lobbied for a pre-trial release.

A statement from the U.S. Attorney's office describes Altalbi as an alleged ring leader of the drug trafficking ring, which sought to distribute, among other substances, synthetic cathinones, commonly referred to as"bath salts." The drug trafficking operation is alleged to have been distributing drugs in Utah for approximately a decade.

Altalibi's lawyers argued that the government did not meet it's burden in demonstrating that Altalibi was a flight risk, citing data from the Pretrial Risk Assessment, the delay in taking him into custody, as well as his cooperation with law enforcement.
