The United States Attorney for the District of Vermont announced that Jahlil Marsh, 28, formerly of Stowe, Vermont, was sentenced today by Chief U.S. District Court Judge Geoffrey W. Crawford. Marsh previously pleaded guilty to a superseding information charging him with participating in a drug trafficking conspiracy. Judge Crawford imposed a sentence of 60 months of imprisonment, to be followed by a three-year term of supervised release.
Marsh was already serving a term of supervised release stemming from a prior federal felony drug conviction at the time he engaged in the drug conspiracy charged in the superseding information. Judge Crawford imposed an 18-month term of imprisonment, to run concurrently with Marsh’s new 60-month sentence, following Marsh’s admission that he violated the terms of his supervised release when he committed this new offense.
According to court records and statements made on the record in court, Marsh participated in a conspiracy to distribute fentanyl and methamphetamine in Vermont and New Hampshire between February and June of 2021. In the course of this conspiracy, Marsh both sold and arranged the sale of controlled substances including fentanyl and methamphetamine.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Spencer Willig prosecuted this case, which was investigated by the Department of Homeland Security, Homeland Security Investigations. The defendant is represented by Michael C. Shklar, Esq.
