Norwalk Man Pleads Guilty to Federal Fentanyl Distribution and Firearm Possession Offenses

Vanessa Roberts Avery, United States Attorney for the District of Connecticut, today announced that GREGORY T. WILLS, also known as “G Money,” “G” and “Greg Jamison,” 40, of Norwalk, pleaded guilty yesterday before U.S. District Judge Jeffrey A. Meyer in New Haven to fentanyl distribution and firearm possession offenses.

According to court documents and statements made in court, in the summer of 2020, members of the FBI’s Bridgeport Safe Streets Task Force and Norwalk Police Department made multiple controlled purchases of fentanyl from Wills.  On September 23, 2020, investigators conducted a court-authorized search of a Norwalk residence that Wills used as a “stash” location and seized approximately 60 grams of fentanyl, items used to process and package narcotics for street sale, four handguns, and numerous rounds of ammunition.  Investigators located Wills later that day at another location in Norwalk.  He discarded a loaded handgun as he attempted to flee but was quickly apprehended.

Wills pleaded guilty to one count of possession with intent to distribute 40 grams or more of fentanyl, which carries a mandatory minimum term of imprisonment of five years and a maximum term of imprisonment of 40 years, and one count of possession of a firearm in furtherance of a drug trafficking offense, which carries a mandatory consecutive term of imprisonment of at least five years.

Under the terms of a binding plea agreement, if accepted by the court, the parties have agreed that 10 years of imprisonment is a reasonable sentence in this case.

Judge Meyer scheduled sentencing for April 10.  Wills has been detained since his arrest.

Wills’ criminal history includes a 2003 federal conviction, under the name Greg Jamison, for distributing crack cocaine, which resulted in a 108-month prison term.

This matter has been investigated by the FBI’s Bridgeport Safe Streets Task Force and the Norwalk Police Department.  The case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorneys Sarah P. Karwan and Karen L. Peck through the Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Forces (OCDETF) Program.  OCDETF identifies, disrupts and dismantles drug traffickers, money launderers, gangs and transnational criminal organizations through a prosecutor-led and intelligence-driven approach that leverages the strengths of federal, state and local law enforcement agencies.  Additional information about the OCDETF Program can be found at https://www.justice.gov/OCDETF.
