CLARKSBURG, WEST VIRGINIA - William Koch, of Anmore, West Virginia, was sentenced today to 121 months incarceration for methamphetamine distribution, U.S. Attorney Bill Powell announced.
Koch, age 34, pled guilty to one count of “Distribution of Methamphetamine" in March 2019. Koch admitted to selling methamphetamine in August 2018 in Harrison County.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Zelda E. Wesley prosecuted the case on behalf of the government. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives and the Greater Harrison Drug & Violent Crimes Task Force, a HIDTA-funded initiative, investigated. The United States Marshal Service assisted.
