Two individuals have been sentenced for their involvement in a drug trafficking operation that spanned from Michigan to Monongalia County, West Virginia. Dorian Myles, aged 26, received a 97-month federal prison sentence for possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine. John Thomas, 46, of Morgantown, West Virginia, was sentenced to 100 months for aiding and abetting the distribution of methamphetamine.

Court documents reveal that Myles was a key supplier in a conspiracy involving the sale of methamphetamine, cocaine base, and fentanyl in Monongalia County. Thomas acted as one of the drug runners. A search conducted by investigators at a Morgantown residence led to the recovery of nearly 1100 grams of methamphetamine.

Myles has previous convictions related to firearms offenses, while Thomas's criminal record includes charges of drug trafficking and fraud.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Zelda Wesley prosecuted these cases on behalf of the government. The investigation was carried out by the Mon Metro Drug Task Force, which is funded by HIDTA (High Intensity Drug Trafficking Areas), alongside the Drug Enforcement Administration.

The sentences were handed down by Chief U.S. District Court Judge Thomas S. Kleeh.
