Jammar Shelton, 44, plead guilty to conspiring to distribute fentanyl and cocaine between 2020 and 2021, and to possessing cocaine with intent to distribute within  1,000 feet of a school and public housing in 2021.

As a result, he was sentenced to 36 months in prison and six years of supervised release following his sentence, according to court records.
