A Cranston man has been sentenced to federal prison for his role in producing and distributing large quantities of methamphetamine-laced pills marketed as Adderall, according to an announcement from Acting United States Attorney Sara Miron Bloom.
Sambo Sok, 41, received a sentence of 120 months in prison and four years of supervised release. U.S. District Court Judge Mary S. McElroy handed down the sentence on November 13, 2025. Sok pleaded guilty earlier this year to charges including possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine and conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine.
The investigation began in August 2022 when authorities searched Sok’s home, vehicle, and an outbuilding on his property. Law enforcement found several kilograms of substances containing methamphetamine, including about 25,000 pills. Officers also discovered a mixture containing fentanyl as well as five pill presses and other equipment used for manufacturing the drug-laced pills.
Court documents described Sok as running a “serious, voluminous production operation” that generated “astronomical” amounts of illicit pills.
The Drug Enforcement Administration’s Providence District Office led the investigation. Assistant United States Attorney Stacey A. Erickson prosecuted the case.
“Sambo Sok was sentenced by U.S. District Court Judge Mary S. McElroy to 120 months of incarceration and four years of supervised release,” said Acting United States Attorney Sara Miron Bloom.
The matter underscores ongoing efforts by federal authorities to address illegal drug production operations in Rhode Island.
