(Beaumont, TX)  United States Attorney Becky Gregory announced today that a 21 year old Conroe, Texas woman has been sentenced to 30 months for federal drug violations in the Eastern District of Texas.

 
            JAYNA MARIE SPURLOCK had pleaded guilty earlier this year to conspiracy to possess with the intent to distribute 50 grams or more of a mixture or substance containing methamphetamine.  Spurlock was sentenced today during an appearance before the Honorable Judge Marcia Crone.  Spurlock will also be required to serve a 36 month period of supervised release after completing her term of imprisonment.
