Defendant Sentenced to Seven Years in Federal Prison for PCP Distribution Conspiracy

Greenbelt, Maryland – Reginald Cecil Duckett, 49, of Washington, D.C., has been sentenced to seven years in federal prison for his role in a PCP distribution conspiracy.

According to his plea agreement, Duckett purchased PCP from co-conspirators and then redistributed the PCP to others. He discussed particular transactions via telephone, including the distribution of multiple ounces of PCP. Duckett’s telephone calls were intercepted pursuant to a court order.

Duckett is one of nine co-conspirators charged in the case. Four co-defendants have so far pleaded guilty and will be sentenced later: Alexander Patton, Jr., Mitchell Brooks, Jermaine Washington, and Robert Beasley.

Acting United States Attorney for the District of Maryland Stephen M. Schenning commended the FBI, the Prince George’s County Police Department, the Prince George’s County Sheriff’s Office, and the Metropolitan Police Department for their work in the investigation. Mr. Schenning thanked Assistant U.S. Attorney Joseph Baldwin, who is prosecuting the case.

The sentence was announced by Acting United States Attorney for the District of Maryland Stephen M. Schenning; Assistant Director in Charge Andrew W. Vale of Federal Bureau of Investigation, Washington Field Office; Special Agent in Charge Gordon Johnson of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Baltimore Field Office; Chief Henry P. Stawinski III of the Prince George’s County Police Department; Prince George’s County Sheriff Melvin C. High; and Chief Peter Newsham of the District of Columbia Metropolitan Police Department.

Reginald Cecil Duckett will serve seven years in federal prison, followed by three years of supervised release, for his role in the PCP distribution conspiracy. This case is a reminder of the serious consequences of involvement in the illicit PCP trade.
