United States of America v. Lucius Lamar Williams

Albany, Georgia, criminal defense lawyer represented the Defendant charged with distributing meth, in violation of 21 U.S.C. 841.

Lucius Lamar Williams, 43, of Pelham, Georgia, was accused of drug trafficking in Pelham, conducting a series of controlled sales between September and December 2022 from Williams, usually at the Pelham Auto Detail Shop he owned. Each time, Williams sold between one and four ounces of methamphetamine to either a confidential informant or an undercover agent. GBI agents discovered that Williams paid for couriers to make trips to Atlanta to obtain multiple kilograms of methamphetamine from an unnamed individual for him to sell in the Pelham community. Traffic stops of his couriers resulted in the seizure of over eight kilograms of methamphetamine. Agents also learned that he was using a family member’s home to store his drugs. A search at that location led to the seizure of an additional 1.3 kilograms of methamphetamine. Williams was held accountable at sentencing for trafficking over 80 kilograms of methamphetamine. This was Williams’ third serious felony drug conviction.

The Defendant was found guilty and was sentenced to 25 years in prison.
