Federal Sentence of 92 Months Will Run Consecutive to State Murder Sentence
ALBANY, NEW YORK - Nicholas “Netti" Khan, age 24, of Schenectady, New York, was sentenced today to 92 months in prison for distributing crack cocaine.
The announcement was made by Acting United States Attorney Grant C. Jaquith and Special Agent in Charge James J. Hunt, New York Division, U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA).
In July 2016, following a three-day trial, a jury in Binghamton convicted Khan of distributing crack cocaine on four occasions in Schenectady from July to September 2013.
Khan is serving a term of imprisonment of 25 years to life in state prison for a 2014 murder conviction. The 92-month federal sentence issued today will begin after Khan is finished serving the murder sentence.
Senior United States District Judge Thomas J. McAvoy also imposed a 4-year term of supervised release, to begin after Khan’s release from prison.
This case was investigated by the DEA and the Colonie Police Department, and was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Emmet O’Hanlon.
