Jimmy Dale King, Methamphetamine Trafficking, Arkansas 2016

Fayetteville, Arkansas – A Marianna man is behind bars and facing a lengthy prison sentence for his role in a methamphetamine trafficking operation.

Jimmy Dale King, also known as OG Zeek Woods, was sentenced to 100 months in federal prison followed by three years of supervised release for his conviction on one count of Possession With Intent to Distribute a Mixture or Substance that Contained Methamphetamine.

The sentence was handed down by The Honorable Timothy L. Brooks in the United States District Court in Fayetteville.

According to court records, in September of 2016, agents with the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) in conjunction with the Springdale Police Department received information that King was in Springdale distributing methamphetamine.

Agents learned that King was from out of town and staying in a local hotel and obtained a description of the vehicle he was driving. On September 15, law enforcement used a confidential source to arrange for a controlled purchase of methamphetamine from King.

Agents set up surveillance and observed as King arrived at the predetermined meeting location. Because King was on parole, there was a valid search waiver on file. After searching and arresting him, officers found approximately one ounce of methamphetamine and $327 cash on his person.

Further searching his hotel room, officers located and seized a digital scale, $860 cash and two additional bags of methamphetamine. The suspected substance was sent to the Arkansas State Crime Lab for testing.

King was named in a federal indictment in October of 2016 and pleaded guilty to the charge in December of 2016.

The Drug Enforcement Administration and the Springdale Police Department investigated this case. Assistant United States Attorney Kimberly Davis Harris prosecuted the case for the United States.
