A Roswell man has been charged with federal firearms and drug trafficking offenses following a traffic stop conducted by the Roswell Police Department. The incident occurred on February 4, 2025, when officers stopped a vehicle for speeding. The driver, identified as Isaac Ivan Boccelli, 36, was traveling with two juveniles aged 12 and 14.
During the search of the vehicle, police discovered two firearms—one concealed on a juvenile and another in the vehicle—along with 396.5 grams of suspected methamphetamine and 147.0 grams of suspected fentanyl. Due to his previous convictions for second-degree murder and battery upon a peace officer, Boccelli is prohibited from possessing firearms.
Boccelli will remain in custody pending trial; however, no date has been set yet. If convicted, he could face up to 40 years in prison.
The announcement was made by U.S. Attorney Alexander M.M. Uballez alongside Brendan Iber, Special Agent in Charge of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF). The ATF investigated this case with assistance from the Roswell Police Department. Assistant U.S. Attorney Devon Aragon Martinez is handling the prosecution.
