A 29-year-old Haverhill man pleaded guilty Monday in federal court in Boston to selling cocaine and illegal firearms in and around the Boston area.

Cordell Miller pleaded guilty to distribution of, and possession with intent to distribute, cocaine; aiding and abetting and trafficking in firearms and conspiracy to do so. U.S. Senior District Court Judge William G. Young scheduled sentencing for May 7.

Miller was arrested and charged in November 2023 along with Malcolm Desir and Alan Robinson. Prosecutors said Miller was identified as a firearms and ammunition trafficker in the metro Boston area. In August 2023, they say, he arranged for the sale of distribution weight cocaine and several firearms to a cooperating witness. Prior to his arrest, prosecutors said, Miller and Robinson helped make the sale of four separate firearms—an AR-15 “ghost gun” rifle, a Polymer 80 “ghost gun” pistol, a HIPOINT 9mm rifle and a Ruger .38 caliber pistol.

Robinson pleaded guilty last month and is scheduled to be sentenced on April 15. Desir is scheduled to plead guilty on Feb. 19.
