Five plead guilty in federal court over fentanyl conspiracy charges

Five individuals have pleaded guilty in federal court to charges related to a drug conspiracy involving fentanyl distribution in the Eastern District of Oklahoma, according to an announcement from the United States Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Oklahoma.

Jordan Rachelle Herbert, age 35, of Ardmore, Oklahoma, entered a guilty plea on December 15, 2025. Wallace Lorenzo Kemp, age 42, and Ashley Brooke Enyart, age 35—both also from Ardmore—pleaded guilty on January 20, 2026. Whitney Janelle Jones, age 35, of Carter County pleaded guilty on January 22, as did Tayvaughn Lashawn Crump (also known as Bleu Strreet), age 26, of Oklahoma City.

Herbert, Kemp, Enyart and Jones each pleaded guilty to one count of Drug Conspiracy. Each charge carries a minimum sentence of ten years up to life in prison and a fine up to $10 million. Crump pleaded guilty to one count Felony Information of Drug Conspiracy with a minimum sentence of five years and up to forty years in prison and a fine up to $5 million.

According to the indictment filed by prosecutors, beginning around August 2023 through May 14, 2025, Kemp, Herbert, Enyart and Jones conspired “to distribute and possess with intent to distribute” at least four hundred grams or more of fentanyl. The felony information further alleges that Crump participated in distributing or possessing with intent to distribute forty grams or more of fentanyl.

The defendants are accused of acquiring and transporting fentanyl into the region; maintaining premises in Carter County where they divided drugs for distribution; using electronic communications for transactions; utilizing vehicles for acquisition and delivery; transferring proceeds via peer-to-peer money apps; handling cash derived from sales; and cultivating customer bases—all as part of their plan “of buying, selling and otherwise possessing with intent to distribute fentanyl.”

The case was investigated by the Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics.

U.S. Magistrate Judge D. Edward Snow accepted the pleas and ordered presentence investigation reports for each defendant. Sentencing will be determined by a U.S. District Court Judge after reviewing sentencing guidelines and statutory factors.

Kemp, Herbert, Jones and Crump remain in custody pending sentencing while Enyart is out on bond under pretrial release conditions.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Richard J. Lorenz represented the government in this case.
