The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Florida announced Friday that a Marianna man has been sentenced to 45 months in federal prison. The sentence follows a conviction for conspiracy to distribute cocaine and marijuana.
According to the government’s statement, the man had previously pleaded guilty to the charges. Prosecutors claimed his conviction stemmed from a multi-agency investigation into a local drug trafficking operation. Details regarding the specific scope and duration of the alleged conspiracy were not immediately available in the initial announcement.
Upon completion of his 45-month prison term, the man will be subject to a period of supervised release, a standard component of federal sentencing. The U.S. Attorney’s Office credited the Drug Enforcement Administration and the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office with conducting the investigation that led to the conviction.
