Aberdeen Man Sentenced to More than 10 Years in Prison for Drug Trafficking

An Aberdeen man was sentenced to 140 months in prison for distribution of methamphetamine.



According to court documents, Brandon Lenoir, 43, of Aberdeen, Mississippi pleaded guilty in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Mississippi to distribution of methamphetamine. Lenoir was sentenced by U.S. District Court Chief Judge Debra Brown in Oxford on Wednesday to 140 months in prison for drug trafficking. He was further sentenced to five years of supervised release.



Lenoir is a repeat offender having been convicted on prior occasions of drug and firearms crimes.



"Methamphetamine destroys individuals, families and communities, and those who traffic it deserve to go to prison,” said U.S. Attorney Clay Joyner. "I commend the joint efforts of our AUSA, the DEA and the Mississippi Bureau of Narcotics in removing this repeat drug offender and the poison he peddles from our streets.”



"The DEA is committed to ensuring our communities remain safe and free from the devastating impacts of drug trafficking. The lengthy sentence handed down to a repeat offender underscores the seriousness of these crimes and our unwavering determination to hold those who contribute to the cycle of addiction accountable,” said Assistant Special Agent in Charge Anessa Daniels-McCaw. "Together, we will continue to work diligently to protect our neighborhoods from the dangers of drugs.”



The Drug Enforcement Administration, alongside the Mississippi Bureau of Narcotics investigated the case.



Assistant U.S. Attorney Chad M. Doleac prosecuted the case.
