Case Result:
Our client was charged with conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute methamphetamine and possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine. We first obtained the government's agreement not to file an enhancement pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 851 that would double the Client's minimum mandatory sentence. We then negotiated a cooperation agreement of the United States and our client pled guilty to one count of the Indictment. At sentencing, because of our client's cooperation, the court reduced her sentence by 40% as well as an additional 24-month downward variance due to various other sentencing factors.
