Local Man Sentenced to 15 Years for Methamphetamine Trafficking
A Jackson man has been sentenced to 15 years in federal prison for trafficking methamphetamine, announced Acting U.S. Attorney Darren LaMarca and Special Agent in Charge Michelle Sutphin with the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
Stephney Clark, 47, of Jackson, was sentenced yesterday by U.S. District Judge Henry T. Wingate to 180 months in federal prison, followed by 5 years of supervised release, for possession with intent to distribute 5 grams or more of methamphetamine. Clark was also ordered to pay a $1,500 fine.
On April 10, 2018, Clark was observed conducting a drug transaction in Jackson. Federal agents arrested Clark and seized approximately 38 grams of methamphetamine, which was 100% pure.
Clark was charged in a federal criminal indictment and he pled guilty before Judge Wingate on December 3, 2020. This case is the result of an extensive investigation, dubbed “Fire and Ice,” which targeted illegal methamphetamine distribution in central Mississippi.
The investigative agencies involved in the case included the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Homeland Security Investigations, Mississippi Bureau of Narcotics, Jackson Police Department, Madison Police Department, Ridgeland Police Department, and Rankin County Sheriff’s Office. The case is being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorneys Chris Wansley and Keesha Middleton.
The “Fire and Ice” investigation aimed to disrupt the flow of methamphetamine in central Mississippi, and the conviction of Stephney Clark is a significant step in achieving that goal. The authorities urge the public to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity to the authorities.
Clark’s sentencing serves as a reminder of the severe consequences of engaging in illicit activities. The community can rest assured that those who commit crimes will face the full force of the law.
