A man who prosecutors called a “major San Francisco drug trafficker” was convicted after police found roughly 65 pounds of methamphetamine in his home, officials said Thursday.

San Francisco police executed a search warrant at the home of Alejandro Alvarez, 46, after learning that he was selling narcotics. Officers found “several pounds” of a substance believed to be heroin, about 65 pounds of meth, ledgers that accounted for drug deals, more than $46,000 in cash and other signs of drug trafficking, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of California.

The meth stash in Alvarez’s San Francisco home included more than 5 million individual doses and was worth more than $1.5 million “when sold in retail quantities,” prosecutors said in a statement Thursday.

Alvarez was indicted in February 2020 on one count of possession with intent to distribute 500 grams and more of methamphetamine. A federal jury recently found him guilty, officials said.

He could face life in prison and a fine of up to $10 million. His sentencing is scheduled for July 14, officials said.
