Zjaondezel Solomyn Douglas Sentenced to 33 Months for Aiding and Abetting Distribution of Cocaine Base

A Pennsylvania man has been sentenced to 33 months of incarceration for his role in a cocaine, crack cocaine, heroin, and fentanyl distribution operation in West Virginia.

Zjaondezel Solomyn Douglas, 37, of Zelionople, Pennsylvania, pleaded guilty in January 2021 to one count of “Aiding and Abetting Distribution of Cocaine Base.”

Douglas admitted to working with another to distribute cocaine base, also known as “crack,” in August 2018 in Hancock County.

The case is part of an Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Forces (OCDETF) investigation, which aims to identify, disrupt, and dismantle high-level drug traffickers and their networks.

Assistant U.S. Attorneys Danae DeMasi-Lemon prosecuted the case on behalf of the government.

The Drug Enforcement Administration, the Hancock-Brooke-Weirton Drug & Violent Crimes Task Force, the West Virginia State Police, and other agencies investigated the case.

U.S. District Judge John Preston Bailey presided over the sentencing.

This case serves as a reminder of the ongoing efforts to combat drug trafficking and organized crime in West Virginia and throughout the United States.

Zjaondezel Solomyn Douglas’ role in the cocaine distribution operation has been brought to justice, and he will serve 33 months in prison for his crimes.
