Two men have been sentenced to federal prison for conspiring bring methamphetamine into a central Alabama lockup.
Lamar Graves Jr., 42, of Attalla, was sentenced to 14 years, according to a Thursday announcement by Middle District of Alabama U.S. Attorney Sandra J. Stewart. That sentence will be followed by five years of supervised released.
The investigation showed that Graves was using friends and family members, including Traylor, who were not incarcerated to assist him in smuggling drugs into the prison.“The presence of drugs in a prison creates an immediate threat to the safety of prisoners and corrections officers alike,” Stewart said. “Corrections officers have challenging jobs. Those challenges increase exponentially when inmates are using methamphetamine and other dangerous controlled substances.
