Brandon Jevar Pittman, Methamphetamine Distribution, Oklahoma 2014
Muskogee Man Faces Serious Consequences After Methamphetamine Distribution Guilty Plea
Brandon Jevar Pittman, a 32-year-old man from Calhoun City, Mississippi, has made a significant mistake that will now come back to haunt him. In a shocking turn of events, Pittman has pleaded guilty to possessing with intent to distribute methamphetamine in the Eastern District of Oklahoma.
The investigation, led by the Oklahoma Highway Patrol and the Drug Enforcement Administration, resulted in Pittman being indicted in June 2014. This marked the beginning of a long and arduous process for the defendant, who now faces the harsh reality of his actions.
According to the indictment, on or about March 6, 2014, Pittman knowingly possessed with the intent to distribute 50 grams or more of a mixture or substance containing a detectable amount of methamphetamine, a Schedule II Controlled Substance. This serious offense has now landed Pittman in a world of trouble.
The Honorable Steven P. Shreder, Magistrate Judge in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Oklahoma, in Muskogee, accepted the guilty plea and ordered the completion of a presentence report. This report will ultimately determine the severity of Pittman's punishment.
The statutory range of punishment for this crime is not less than 5 years and not more than 40 years imprisonment and/or up to a $5,000,000.00 fine. Assistant United States Attorney Kyle Waters represented the United States in this case, ensuring that justice is served.
As Pittman awaits his sentencing, he must come to terms with the consequences of his actions. The people of Oklahoma will be watching closely to see how this case unfolds, and what punishment the defendant will ultimately face.
