U.S. District Judge John F. Heil of the Northern District of Oklahoma sentenced Adam Douglas Sherwood, 43, of Wyandotte to 100 months in prison followed by 5 years of supervised release.
In November of 2021, a federal jury found Sherwood guilty for drug conspiracy, possession of methamphetamine with intent to distribute, and three counts of unlawful use of a communication facility.
“Distributors like Sherwood have little regard for the lives lost to addiction and violence resulting from their criminal operations,” said U.S. Attorney Clint Johnson.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office will continue to work with our federal partners to investigate, disrupt, and prosecute criminal networks who pose a threat to communities in the Northern District of Oklahoma.”
Sherwood’s coconspirator, Kenneth Rosenberg, was sentenced on Oct. 25, 2021, to 60 months in federal prison, followed by 5 years of supervised release, after he pleaded guilty to possessing a firearm in furtherance of a drug trafficking crime.
The Tulsa Police Department, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs, Bureau of Indian Affairs, Miami Police Department, and Drug Enforcement Administration conducted the investigation.
Assistant U.S. Attorneys Justin G. Bish and Thomas E. Duncombe are prosecuting the case.
