United States of America v. Erinas Sasha Parker

Mobile, Alabama criminal defense lawyer represented the Defendant charged with conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute cocaine.

Erina Sasha Parker, 39, pleaded guilty to participating in a conspiracy to distribute bulk cocaine. Specifically, Parker admitted that in April and May 2024, she worked as a bulk cocaine courier for a massive drug-trafficking organization (“DTO”) in Mobile led by Glennie Antonio McGee (“McGee”). As established at a three-week jury trial in January 2026, McGee’s DTO distributed hundreds of pounds of cocaine and fentanyl pills in the Southern District of Alabama and utilized children as drug couriers.

Parker’s involvement in the McGee DTO was captured on a court-authorized wiretap. During several recorded phone calls, Parker and McGee discussed and coordinated the delivery of multiple kilograms of cocaine. Parker admitted to agents that McGee paid her $500 per assignment, which included receiving bulk cocaine shipments, breaking down and repackaging bulk cocaine into distribution amounts, and delivering cocaine to McGee and other distributors in his DTO. Parker further admitted that she delivered bulk cocaine to DTO members when McGee was out of town or otherwise unavailable, and that she received a shipment of six to seven kilograms of cocaine from one of McGee’s Texas-based suppliers at a hotel in Mobile. In total, over the course of approximately one month, Parker distributed more than 20 kilograms of cocaine—a distribution amount worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.

At sentencing, the United States advocated for a prison sentence of 70 months, which was at the low end of Parker’s advisory sentencing guidelines range. Ultimately, Chief United States District Judge Jeffrey U. Beaverstock imposed a sentence of time served followed by a five-year term of supervised release. During Parker’s supervised release term, she will receive mental health evaluation and treatment. The court did not impose a fine, but Chief Judge Beaverstock ordered Parker to pay a $100 special assessment.

U.S. Attorney Sean P. Costello of the Southern District of Alabama made the announcement.

Homeland Security Investigations, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Drug Enforcement Administration, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, the Mobile County Sheriff’s Office, the Mobile Police Department, the Prichard Police Department, and the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency investigated the case.
