Monongalia County woman sentenced for her role in an oxycodone distribution operation

CLARKSBURG, WEST VIRGINIA – Ariel Blosser, of Morgantown, West Virginia, was sentenced today to 24 months incarceration for distributing oxycodone, United States Attorney Bill Powell announced.

Blosser, age 28, pled guilty to “Distribution of Oxycodone” in November 2017. Blosser admitted to selling oxycodone in February 2016 in Monongalia County.
