Lansford, PA – In a shocking turn of events, Victoria Ann Argott, a 34-year-old resident of Lansford, Carbon County, has been sentenced to 40 months in prison for her involvement in a cocaine trafficking conspiracy.

Argott, who pleaded guilty to the charges, admitted to participating in the conspiracy to distribute crack cocaine and powder cocaine in the Carbon County area between January 2011 and December 2012.

According to the United States Attorney Peter J. Smith, Argott’s role in the conspiracy was significant, and her sentencing is a testament to the efforts of law enforcement agencies in the area.

The investigation into the cocaine trafficking conspiracy was conducted by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, and the Nesquehoning and Lansford Police Departments in Carbon County.

The case was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Robert J. O’Hara, who commended the efforts of law enforcement agencies in bringing the perpetrators to justice.
