A Pittsburgh resident has been sentenced to six years in federal prison for drug trafficking offenses. Eric Gerome Clancy, 38, received his sentence from Chief United States District Judge Mark R. Hornak. Following his imprisonment, Clancy will undergo five years of supervised release.
The court was informed that on May 15, 2024, Mt. Lebanon police stopped Clancy for traffic violations. A subsequent search of his vehicle revealed nine "bricks" containing a mixture of fentanyl, methamphetamine, and xylazine. Additionally, officers found several ounces of crack and powder cocaine, a scale, and a significant amount of U.S. currency in the vehicle. At the time of this offense, Clancy was already on federal supervised release after serving a 90-month sentence for drug trafficking and firearms charges.
Assistant United States Attorney V. Joseph Sonson represented the government in this case.
Acting United States Attorney Troy Rivetti acknowledged the efforts of the Mt. Lebanon Police Department and Drug Enforcement Administration in their investigation that led to Clancy's prosecution.
