Rasheed Rahid Muhammad, a 50-year-old Magnolia man, was sentenced to 72 months in prison for Distribution of Methamphetamine in Arkansas.
The sentence, handed down by the Honorable Chief Judge Susan O. Hickey in the United States District Court in El Dorado, will be followed by three years of supervised release.
According to court documents, on or about September 4, 2020, investigators with the 13th Judicial District Drug Task Force and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) conducted a controlled purchase of methamphetamine from Muhammad.
The methamphetamine field tested positive and was sent to the crime lab for further testing.
U.S. Attorney David Clay Fowlkes of the Western District of Arkansas made the announcement.
The 13th Judicial District Drug Task Force and the FBI investigated the case.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Kim Harris prosecuted the case.
This case was prosecuted as part of Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN), a program bringing together all levels of law enforcement and the communities they serve to reduce violent crime and make our neighborhoods safer for everyone.
The sentence was part of a renewed focus on targeting violent criminals, directing all U.S. Attorney’s Offices to work in partnership with federal, state, local, and tribal law enforcement and the local community to develop effective, locally-based strategies to reduce violent crime.
