CAMDEN, N.J. – A Philadelphia man was sentenced to 120 months in prison for conspiring to distribute 50 grams or more of methamphetamine, U.S. Attorney Philip R Sellinger announced today.
Nasir White, 30, previously pleaded guilty before U.S. District Judge Robert B. Kugler to an information charging him with one count of knowingly and intentionally conspiring to distribute and to possess with intent to distribute 50 grams or more of methamphetamine. Judge Kugler imposed the sentence on Nov. 21, 2022, in Camden federal court.

In addition to the prison term, Judge Kugler sentenced White to five years of supervised release.
