A 30-year-old Elmira man, Corey J. Lattimer, has been sentenced to 15 years in prison for his role in a large-scale methamphetamine trafficking operation.
According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office, Lattimer was convicted of possession with intent to distribute 50 grams or more of methamphetamine.
The sentencing was handed down by U.S. District Judge Charles J. Siragusa, who also ordered Lattimer to forfeit $3,528.62 in seized U.S. currency and over 250 rounds of seized ammunition.
Lattimer was arrested on April 25, 2022, after a search warrant was executed at his South Main Street residence by the Elmira Police Department Drug Enforcement Unit and the New York State Police Violent Gang and Narcotics Enforcement Team.
During the search, investigators recovered approximately 2,075 grams of methamphetamine, 475 grams of fentanyl, and 5.2 grams of p-Flourofentanyl, a fentanyl analogue, as well as drug paraphernalia and the seized ammunition and currency.
The investigation was led by the Elmira Police Department under the direction of Chief Kristen Thorne, the New York State Police under the direction of Major Brian Ratajczak, and the Drug Enforcement Administration under the direction of Special Agent-in-Charge Frank A. Tarentino III, New York Field Division.
