Luzerne County Man Gets 46 Months for Meth Trafficking
SCRANTON – A Luzerne County man has been sentenced to 46 months in prison for his role in a methamphetamine trafficking and firearms offense. Bruce Redmond, 32, of Dallas, Pennsylvania, was sentenced on September 1, 2021, by United States District Court Judge Malachy E. Mannion.
According to Acting United States Attorney Bruce D. Brandler, Redmond previously entered a guilty plea before Judge Mannion and admitted to being an illegal user of controlled substances in possession of firearms and to the possession of methamphetamine for further distribution.
The charges stem from an incident in which law enforcement authorities served search warrants at Redmond’s residence in Dallas and business office in Kingston and seized approximately 58 firearms, 6,664 rounds of ammunition and a quantity of methamphetamine.
This matter was investigated by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), the Kingston Police Department, and the Pennsylvania State Police. Assistant U.S. Attorney Robert J. O’Hara prosecuted the case.
This case was prosecuted as part of the joint federal, state, and local Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN) Program, the centerpiece of the Department of Justice’s violent crime reduction efforts.
Project Safe Neighborhoods is an evidence-based program proven to be effective at reducing violent crime. Through PSN, a broad spectrum of stakeholders work together to identify the most pressing violent crime problems in the community and develop comprehensive solutions to address them.
