Detroit man admits to selling crack cocaine

CLARKSBURG, WEST VIRGINIA – A Detroit, Michigan man has admitted to a drug charge, Acting United States Attorney Betsy Steinfeld Jividen announced.

Aaron Deshawn Campbell, also known as “Mike,” age 29, pled guilty to one count of “Distribution of Cocaine Base.” Campbell admitted selling crack cocaine in Monongalia County in June 2015. 

Campbell faces up to 20 years incarceration and a fine of up to $1,000,000. Under the Federal Sentencing Guidelines, the actual sentence imposed will be based upon the seriousness of the offenses and the prior criminal history, if any, of the defendant.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Zelda E. Wesley is prosecuting the case on behalf of the government. The Mon Metro Drug and Violent Crime Task Force, a HIDTA-funded program, investigated. 

Senior U.S. District Judge Irene M. Keeley presided.
