Angie Lane Harbour, Methamphetamine Distribution Conspiracy, West Virginia 2021

A Charleston woman is behind bars after participating in a multi-state methamphetamine conspiracy, with a significant amount of the illicit substance seized in Cross Lanes. Angie Lane Harbour, 40, was sentenced to three years and 10 months in prison, to be followed by three years of supervised release, for her role in the conspiracy.

According to court documents and statements made in court, Harbour acted as a driver for members of the methamphetamine distribution organization both locally and during resupply trips out-of-state. On August 4, 2021, Harbour was driving co-conspirators Brian D’Angelo Terry and Brittany Frances Gilbert back to West Virginia from a resupply trip to Columbus, Ohio, when they were stopped by police in Cross Lanes. Approximately 1 pound of methamphetamine was seized from the vehicle.

Harbour pleaded guilty to conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine, and is one of 17 defendants charged as a result of the investigation. Several others, including Terry and Gilbert, have also pleaded guilty to their roles in the conspiracy.

The investigation was a result of the collaborative efforts of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the Charleston Police Department, the Kanawha County Sheriff’s Department, the Putnam County Sheriff’s Department, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco Firearms, and Explosives (ATF), and the Metropolitan Drug Enforcement Network Team (MDENT).

United States District Judge Joseph R. Goodwin imposed the sentence, which Harbour will serve in addition to three years of supervised release. Assistant United States Attorney Joshua Hanks prosecuted the case.

This prosecution is part of an Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Forces (OCDETF) investigation, which aims to disrupt and dismantle high-level drug traffickers and their organizations. The OCDETF uses a prosecutor-led, intelligence-driven, multi-agency approach to leverage the strengths of federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies against criminal networks.
