Clinton J. Johnson U.S. Attorney | U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Oklahoma
A man already serving a 20-year sentence in the Oklahoma Department of Corrections for earlier drug offenses has now received a federal sentence for drug conspiracy charges. The U.S. Attorney Clint Johnson announced Monday that Shane Eugene Miller, 39, received a sentence of 252 months followed by five years of supervised release.
"Miller ran an extensive drug conspiracy from prison with the aid of contraband cell phones and other co-conspirators," stated U.S. Attorney Clint Johnson. "The use of a contraband cellphone by prisoners cannot be tolerated. The actions of Miller threatened our communities with dangerous narcotics. My office, in conjunction with our law enforcement partners, will continue to prosecute individuals who deal drugs, whether they are in prison or out."
FBI Oklahoma City Special Agent in Charge Doug Goodwater added, "This investigation demonstrates the FBI’s commitment to ensuring those who pollute our communities with dangerous drugs are brought to justice. We will continue to work side by side with our law enforcement partners to dismantle criminal enterprises, regardless of where they operate."
According to court documents, while in custody, Miller used contraband cellphones to manage the distribution of methamphetamine and fentanyl, directing others to negotiate with buyers and manage payments.
In related cases, Brenda Raelene Blakeley, 65, of Oklahoma City, was sentenced in March 2025 to 235 months imprisonment and five years supervised release for possession of methamphetamine with intent to distribute. Cierra Michelle Warner, 32, of Ponca City, received a 24-month sentence and one year of supervised release for facilitating a drug trafficking felony through the use of a communication facility. Johnathan Allen Perryman, 43, pleaded guilty to distribution of fentanyl and is awaiting sentencing.
The FBI, Muscogee Creek Nation Lighthorse Police, and Tulsa Police Department were involved in the investigation, with the prosecution handled by Assistant U.S. Attorneys Adam Bailey, Attila Bogdan, and Joel-lyn McCormick. The investigation was part of the Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Forces (OCDETF) initiative aimed at disrupting significant criminal organizations.
Miller will remain in custody pending transfer to the U.S. Bureau of Prisons.
