Nicholas County Woman Sentenced to Two Years in Federal Prison for Methamphetamine Manufacturing
A Nicholas County woman has been sentenced to two years in federal prison for her role in manufacturing methamphetamine. Jennifer Curry, 37, of Nicholas County, West Virginia, was sentenced on January 10, 2012, for conspiracy to manufacture methamphetamine.
According to court documents, Curry manufactured approximately 6 grams of methamphetamine at a residence located in Richwood, West Virginia, on June 1, 2011. She also admitted to using manufacturing supplies provided by other individuals.
On June 2, 2011, after being advised of her Miranda rights, Curry agreed to waive her rights and admitted that she cooked methamphetamine on at least 30 occasions at various locations in Nicholas County, West Virginia, since October 2010.
Curry also admitted to being responsible for distributing at least 50 grams but less than 200 grams of methamphetamine.
The investigation was conducted by the West Virginia State Police and the U.S. Forestry Service. Assistant United States Attorney John Frail handled the prosecution.
The sentence was imposed by United States District Judge John T. Copenhaver, Jr.
A Nicholas County woman’s two-year prison sentence serves as a reminder of the severe consequences for those involved in methamphetamine manufacturing. The case highlights the importance of law enforcement’s efforts to combat the production and distribution of this deadly substance.
As the investigation and prosecution of Curry’s case demonstrate, the federal government will continue to prioritize the enforcement of laws related to methamphetamine manufacturing and distribution.
