A Sperry man was sentenced on July 14 to more than ten years in federal prison for distributing methamphetamine and attempting to tamper with a witness, according to U.S. Attorney Clint Johnson.
U.S. District Judge Sara E. Hill sentenced Aaron Mitchell Robinson, 51, to 132 months’ imprisonment followed by five years of supervised release. In July 2025, the Federal Bureau of Investigation began investigating Robinson for selling methamphetamine from his residence in Sperry. Agents conducted controlled buys from Robinson, who accepted cash for more than a pound of methamphetamine. During one controlled buy, Robinson was observed possessing two firearms. When agents executed a search warrant at his home, they recovered two firearms and ammunition, $1,660 in cash, and evidence consistent with drug use and trafficking.
Robinson’s plea agreement shows that he admitted contacting a witness on social media in an attempt to persuade them not to testify. Court records indicate that Robinson had previously been arrested several times and had felony convictions for stealing a plane, using a motor vehicle without permission, and possessing stolen property.
Robinson will remain in custody pending transfer to the U.S. Bureau of Prisons. The FBI investigated the case with assistance from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. Assistant U.S. Attorney Adam Bailey prosecuted the case.
Project Safe Neighborhoods is described as focusing on violent crime issues facing communities by bringing together federal, state, local, and tribal law enforcement agencies along with prosecutors to address these challenges collaboratively.
