McAlester Resident Sentenced For Federal Drug Conspiracy

MUSKOGEE, OKLAHOMA – The United States Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Oklahoma announced that Jeremy David Crawley, age 47, of McAlester, Oklahoma, was sentenced to 180 months in prison for one count of Drug Conspiracy.

The charges arose from an investigation by the Drug Enforcement Administration, the Pittsburg County Sheriff’s Department, and the McAlester Police Department.

On September 4, 2024, Crawley pleaded guilty to the charge.  According to investigators, between 2019 and approximately December 2022, Crawley conspired with others to obtain and distribute over 100 pounds of methamphetamine.

“Today’s sentencing of Jeremy David Crawley reflects a win for all citizens of Eastern Oklahoma who value safe and drug-free communities,” said Eduardo A. Chávez, Special Agent in Charge of DEA operations in Oklahoma.  “We will continue to work hand in hand with our law enforcement partners across the state to ensure justice is served.”

“Prior to being indicted, the defendant chose to quit selling and using methamphetamine—an admirable decision, but not one that erases the past nor lessens the impact of his actions.  Methamphetamine is a scourge which destroys lives, families, and relationships. Justice demands accountability, and the sentence imposed by the Court holds the defendant responsible for his crimes,” said United States Attorney Christopher J. Wilson.

The Honorable Ronald A. White, Chief U.S. District Judge in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Oklahoma, presided over the hearing.  Crawley will remain in the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service pending transportation to a designated United States Bureau of Prisons facility to serve a non-paroleable sentence of incarceration.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Erin Cornell represented the United States.
