A South Charleston methamphetamine dealer has been sentenced to 135 months in federal prison, announced United States Attorney Mike Stuart.
Court documents show that Carl ‘Yogi’ Clark, 40, previously pled guilty to distribution of methamphetamine.
The investigation was conducted by the Metropolitan Drug Enforcement Network Team (MDENT), with assistance from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF).
Clark previously admitted that in January 2017, along with other individuals, they brought approximately four kilograms of crystal methamphetamine from Atlanta to Charleston.
On January 12, 2017, officers with MDENT executed a search warrant at a hotel room and found over 130 grams of methamphetamine, scales, baggies, and a gun.
The methamphetamine was part of the approximately four kilograms Clark and others brought back from Atlanta, and it was lab-tested and confirmed to be over 90% pure.
Clark had also admitted to distributing additional methamphetamine to confidential informants during controlled buys in March 2017.
