FDA Slams Door on Drug Smuggler Justin Henry for Five Years

Published Date: 5/29/2025

Notice

Summary

Justin Cole Henry is banned for 5 years from importing any drugs into the U.S. because he was convicted of a serious drug crime. He didn’t respond to the FDA’s notice, so the ban goes into effect without a hearing. This means no drug imports from him until February 24, 2029, protecting public safety and keeping bad actors out.

Five‑Year Drug Import Ban

The FDA barred Justin Cole Henry from importing or offering to import any drug into the United States for 5 years because he was convicted of a felony for possession with intent to distribute a Schedule III controlled substance. The ban took effect on February 24, 2025 and continues through February 24, 2029. Mr. Henry did not request a hearing, so the order was issued without one.
