Drug Trafficking Ring Exposed in West Virginia

In a shocking turn of events, Kevin Lawrence Jarrett, a 32-year-old resident of Detroit, Michigan, has admitted to his role in a drug trafficking conspiracy in West Virginia.

According to court documents, Jarrett, also known as ‘Six,’ pleaded guilty to one count of ‘Distribution of Five Grams or More of Methamphetamine’ on an unspecified date.

The crime took place in August 2019 in Marion County, where Jarrett distributed over five grams of methamphetamine, also known as ‘crystal’ and ‘ice.’

As a result of his plea, Jarrett faces a minimum of five years and up to 40 years of incarceration, along with a fine of up to $5,000,000.

Under the Federal Sentencing Guidelines, the actual sentence imposed will be based on the seriousness of the offenses and Jarrett’s prior criminal history, if any.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Brandon S. Flower is prosecuting the case on behalf of the government, with the Three Rivers Drug Task Force leading the investigation.

U.S. Magistrate Judge Michael Aloi presided over the proceedings.

Jarrett’s admission to the crime marks a significant blow to the drug trafficking ring, and authorities are hopeful that his cooperation will lead to further arrests and convictions.

The case serves as a reminder of the ongoing struggle against drug trafficking and the importance of community involvement in reporting suspicious activity.

Jarrett’s sentencing is pending, and he remains in custody awaiting the outcome.
