Leesville and Many Men Sentenced for Methamphetamine Distribution Conspiracy

LAFAYETTE–On September 24, 2026, United States District Judge Robert R. Summerhays sentenced Charles Jackson, 38, of Many, Louisiana, to 63 months in federal prison followed by four years of supervised release, for Conspiracy to Distribute and Possession with Intent to Distribute Methamphetamine, after his guilty plea on June 22, 2026.

The same day, Judge Summerhays also sentenced Andrew Bulloch, 58,  of Leesville, to 60 months in federal prison followed by five years of supervised release for Conspiracy to Distribute and Possession with Intent to Distribute Methamphetamine. He pled guilty on June 8, 2026.  

Jackson and Bulloch were members of the same indicted conspiracy.

U.S. Attorney Zachary A. Keller for the Western District of Louisiana made the announcement.

BULLOCH

According to court documents, Bulloch conspired with others to obtain distribution-level quantities of methamphetamine. On one occasion, federal agents intercepted telephone calls between Bulloch and a co-conspirator in which Bulloch sought three ounces of methamphetamine due to high customer demand.

JACKSON

According to court documents, Jackson conspired to acquire distribution-level quantities of methamphetamine. Investigators intercepted discussions involving Jackson and co-conspirators discussing the purchase of large quantities of methamphetamine for future sales on August 6, 2025.  The next day, the Vernon Parish Sheriff’s Office (VPSO) stopped Jackson and his co-conspirators after they had completed a methamphetamine purchase, with VPSO recovering a black bag containing 231.6 grams of methamphetamine during the stop.

These cases were investigated by the Drug Enforcement Agency and VPSO.  They were prosecuted by Assistance U.S. Attorney LaDonte Murphy with the assistance of Legal Assistant Christy Angelle.

These cases were prosecuted as part of Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN), the Department of Justice’s nationwide initiative that brings federal, state, local, and tribal law enforcement, prosecutors, and other public safety partners together to coordinate efforts to combat violent crime and make communities safe. Coordinated by U.S. Attorneys’ offices in each of the 94 federal districts, PSN is tailored to particular communities to strategically address specific violent crime and public safety challenges. As a key component of Operation Take Back America, PSN serves a central role in the Department’s commitment to make our country safe. PSN emphasizes three core principles: rapid federal response to violent crime and criminal offenders; strong, strategic partnerships among law enforcement at all levels; and accountability and deterrence through the prosecution of the most serious, readily provable offenses and other strategies. These efforts complement and strengthen President Trump’s Homeland Security Task Forces, ensuring a comprehensive federal response to the most pressing public safety issues facing communities.
