Kimoy McDonald aka 'Kenny Roq' has been identified as significant figure in a large-scale drug distribution conspiracy operated in Binghamton NY area

"Kimoy McDonald aka 'Kirk'", is an individual from the Bronx, New York, who has been in the news due to his involvement in a significant federal drug case in Binghamton, New York, which concluded with his conviction and sentencing in December 2025 in Syracuse NY. The legal proceedings related to this individual were notably sealed for several years, adding a layer of complexity and intrigue to the public record. Here is a detailed elaboration on the public information available regarding Kimoy McDonald, aka 'Kirk', aka 'Kenny Roq'. 

Background and Criminal Enterprise; Kimoy McDonald, aged 34 with a date of birth of September 19, 1991, originally hails from the Bronx, New York. He established and led a 10-member drug gang that distributed substantial quantities of narcotics, including methamphetamine, heroin, cocaine, and fentanyl, throughout Broome County, NY, and potentially extending into Pennsylvania. 

To facilitate his illegal activities and launder the significant amounts of money generated, reportedly thousands of dollars weekly, McDonald utilized a sophisticated money laundering scheme involving the creation of fake businesses and defrauding various banks. He maintained an apartment on Reynolds Road in Johnson City, NY, which served as a hub for storing and distributing the narcotics from 2021 until his arrest in June 2022. 


Arrest, Trial, and Conviction; McDonald's operations came to an end with a series of sweeping arrests of his gang members in June 2022. Following these arrests, the case was unusually kept under a strict seal in the US District Court for the Northern District of New York in Syracuse, meaning the general public and local media outlets were largely unaware of the legal proceedings for over three years. 

The federal trial was protracted, lasting approximately 3 years and 6 months. On December 18, 2025, the seal was lifted upon his conviction and sentencing. Conviction: McDonald was found guilty of a comprehensive list of charges, including various drug charges, money laundering, and conspiracy to distribute narcotics. Sentence: He was sentenced to 144 months (12 years) in federal prison. Restitution: Additionally, he was ordered to pay restitution of $351,732.00 to the banks he defrauded as part of his money laundering operation. 
Connections to Unsolved Cases; An interesting and somber aspect of the information available online revolves around the timing of McDonald's activities and an unsolved murder in the Binghamton area. Aliza Spencer Murder: On April 21, 2022, 12-year-old Aliza Spencer was shot and killed on Bigelow Street in Binghamton, NY. The case remains unsolved. McDonald's Proximity: Public records indicate that Kimoy McDonald, driving a dark gray Wrangler Rubicon Jeep, was present on Bigelow Street multiple times in April 2022 to deliver drugs to a co-conspirator, Kathleen Trynoski, who lived there. 

Timeline Coincidence: McDonald was reportedly at the specific Bigelow Street address approximately one week before the murder took place. This proximity in time and location has been noted by some private investigators as a potentially relevant, though not officially linked, coincidence in the ongoing investigation of the unsolved murder. In summary, Kimoy McDonald, aka 'Kirk', was the head of a significant drug trafficking operation whose federal conviction recently brought his activities to light, revealing a complex web of crime and an intriguing, potentially related, local mystery.
