A 53-year-old Clarkston woman has been sentenced to 5 years in prison for her role in a fentanyl overdose death. Shannon Louise Grove distributed the deadly substance to a Lewiston man in October 2024, which ultimately led to his death. The phone records and data confirmed her involvement in the distribution of fentanyl.
Grove had a long history of drug dealing, with previous convictions in Asotin County, Washington, and Nez Perce County, Idaho. Despite this, she continued to fuel the addiction crisis, causing irreparable harm to individuals, families, and communities.
The FBI’s Salt Lake City Field Office, along with the US Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Washington, led the investigation into Grove’s crimes. The authorities commended the hard work of their law enforcement partners who tirelessly work to prevent the introduction of illicit substances into the district.
Fighting fentanyl is a top priority for the Department of Justice, and this case serves as a stark reminder of the devastating impact of the illicit substance. The victim’s family, as well as all those affected by fentanyl, deserve justice and support.
