Jamel Proctor, Methamphetamine Possession, West Virginia 2016
Jamel Proctor, a 31-year-old New York City drug dealer, has been sentenced to seven years and three months in federal prison for a methamphetamine crime.
On May 13, 2016, a suspicious parcel was searched by an inspector with the United States Postal Service in Huntington, West Virginia. The parcel, addressed to Proctor's residence at 515 Flora Court, contained over 900 grams of methamphetamine.
Agents conducted a controlled delivery of the package to 515 Flora Court, and Proctor's girlfriend accepted the package. A search of the residence immediately following the controlled delivery recovered the package, and agents located Proctor inside the residence. A loaded firearm was also discovered inside the residence.
In a subsequent search of Proctor's vehicle, agents located four additional firearms and an additional 173 grams of methamphetamine in two separate duffel bags. A surveillance team had seen Proctor place the bags in his vehicle earlier that day.
The Huntington FBI Drug Task Force, the United States Postal Inspection Service, and the Cabell County Sheriff's Department conducted the investigation. Proctor previously pleaded guilty to possession with intent to distribute 50 grams or more of methamphetamine.
Assistant United States Attorney Gregory McVey is in charge of the prosecution. Chief United States District Judge Robert C. Chambers imposed the sentence.
This case was prosecuted as part of an ongoing effort led by the United States Attorney's Office for the Southern District of West Virginia to combat the illicit sale and misuse of illegal drugs, including methamphetamine.
