Najalaek Walker, 27, Sentenced to 48 Months for Cocaine and Heroin Possession
Lynchburg, VA – In a shocking turn of events, Najalaek Walker, 27, of Troy, New York, was sentenced to 48 months in federal prison for possession with the intent to distribute cocaine, heroin, and a firearm by a convicted felon.
According to court documents, Walker was wanted by the state of New York for a parole violation at the time of his arrest. On November 27, 2021, members of the Lynchburg Police Department were notified that Walker was on a Greyhound bus and expected to stop in Lynchburg, Virginia.
As Walker exited the bus, he dropped a food container he was holding, which contained a Jimenez Arms 9mm pistol with 12 rounds of ammunition. During his arrest, Walker was found in possession of numerous individually packaged bags containing heroin and cocaine, as well as an additional eight rounds of 9mm ammunition.
United States Attorney Christopher R. Kavanaugh of the Western District of Virginia and Special Agent in Charge of the FBI Richmond Division Stanley M. Meador made the announcement. The investigation of the case was conducted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Lynchburg Police Department.
Assistant United States Attorney Charlene Day prosecuted the case for the United States. Walker’s sentencing comes as a result of his guilty plea in October 2022 to the aforementioned charges.
This case is a stark reminder of the ongoing struggle against drug trafficking and gun violence in our communities. The Grimy Times will continue to monitor this case and provide updates as more information becomes available.
