Myles Davis, Heroin Trafficking, Pennsylvania 2018

SCRANTON – In a shocking turn of events, Myles Davis, a 29-year-old Tobyhanna man, pleaded guilty to conspiracy to distribute more than 100 grams of heroin on April 2, 2018, before U.S. District Court Judge A. Richard Caputo.

According to United States Attorney David J. Freed, Davis admitted to participating in a conspiracy to distribute between 100 and 400 grams of heroin (equivalent to 4,000 to 16,000 individual doses of heroin) in the Monroe County area between May and July 2015.

Davis was one of eleven individuals indicted by a grand jury in July 2015 and charged with conspiring to distribute heroin and cocaine in the Monroe County area.

The investigation was conducted by the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and the Pocono Mountain Regional Police Department. Assistant United States Attorney Robert J. O’Hara is prosecuting the case.

This case was brought as part of Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN), a program that has been historically successful in bringing together all levels of law enforcement to reduce violent crime and make our neighborhoods safer for everyone.

A sentence following a finding of guilt is imposed by the Judge after consideration of the applicable federal sentencing statutes and the Federal Sentencing Guidelines.

The maximum penalty under federal law is up to 40 years in prison, a term of supervised release following imprisonment, and a fine. The charge also carries a mandatory minimum sentence of five years’ imprisonment.
