Chellsie S. Boyer, Methamphetamine Distribution, West Virginia 2021

WHEELING, WEST VIRGINIA – In a shocking revelation, Chellsie S. Boyer, a 32-year-old resident of Weirton, West Virginia, has admitted to a serious drug charge, announced United States Attorney William Ihlenfeld.

According to reports, Boyer pleaded guilty today to one count of ‘Distribution of 5 Grams or More of Methamphetamine.’ She admitted to selling more than five grams of methamphetamine in November 2021 in Hancock County.

The crime carries a hefty sentence, with Boyer facing at least five years and up to 40 years of incarceration and a fine of up to $5,000,000. Under the Federal Sentencing Guidelines, the actual sentence imposed will be based upon the seriousness of the offenses and the prior criminal history, if any, of the defendant.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Shawn M. Adkins is prosecuting the case on behalf of the government. The Hancock-Brooke-Weirton Drug Task Force, a HIDTA-funded initiative, investigated the crime.

U.S. Magistrate Judge James P. Mazzone presided over the case. The guilty plea is a significant blow to the community, and law enforcement officials are breathing a sigh of relief.

The case serves as a reminder of the dangers of methamphetamine and the importance of our ongoing efforts to combat this scourge. Chellsie S. Boyer’s admission of guilt is a critical step towards justice and will undoubtedly have a lasting impact on the community.

As the investigation continues, we urge anyone with information regarding this case to come forward and assist us in bringing those responsible to justice.
