A Billings man has been sentenced to 10 years and eight months in prison for his involvement in methamphetamine trafficking. Anthony Enemyhunter, aged 37, will also face five years of supervised release following his prison term. U.S. Attorney Jesse Laslovich announced the sentencing.
Enemyhunter had pleaded guilty in August to possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine. The case was presided over by U.S. Attorney Susan P. Watters.
Court documents revealed that Enemyhunter was part of a multi-state drug trafficking organization operating from a residence on Sugar Avenue in Billings. The group involved individuals who distributed meth and fentanyl brought into Montana by males from Washington. Enemyhunter was identified as selling meth from a hotel in Billings.
A probation search of Enemyhunter's hotel room led to the seizure of a firearm, ammunition, and a small quantity of methamphetamine. Additionally, he sold meth to a confidential source on two occasions. In February, the Montana Highway Patrol stopped his vehicle and found him possessing meth and several firearms, including one that was stolen.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office prosecuted the case while the Drug Enforcement Administration conducted the investigation.
This case is part of Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN), which aims to reduce violent crime and gun violence through collaboration between law enforcement agencies and communities. On May 26, 2021, the Department launched a strategy to strengthen PSN with core principles such as fostering trust within communities, supporting organizations that prevent violence, setting strategic enforcement priorities, and measuring results.
