Myrtle Beach Man Given 10-Year Sentence for Drug Trafficking
**Conway, SC** – Jarrell Grant, a 50-year-old resident of Myrtle Beach, was sentenced on Monday for his involvement in a 2023 drug trafficking case. He pleaded guilty to multiple charges including trafficking cocaine; possession with intent to distribute crack cocaine and heroin; possession of a firearm by a convicted felon; and failure to stop for a blue light.
The case was prosecuted by Assistant Solicitor Brandon R. Lanier from the 15th Circuit Solicitor’s Office. Circuit Court Judge Alex Hyman sentenced Grant to 10 years in prison. The sentences for the charges reflect their nature, with some carrying penalties ranging from five to 30 years, making Grant ineligible for parole due to the serious and violent nature of the cocaine trafficking charge.
The charges originated from a search warrant executed at Grant’s residence following a drug trafficking investigation. Detectives discovered packaged narcotics and a firearm, the possession of which is illegal for Grant. After attempting to flee from authorities, he was eventually apprehended. His previous conviction for trafficking crack cocaine resulted in enhanced charges.
Assistant Solicitor Lanier acknowledged the efforts of the Myrtle Beach Police Department, particularly the
Brooklyn Man Receives 10-Year Sentence for Subway Assault
**Brooklyn, NY** – A Brooklyn man has been sentenced to 10 years in prison for attacking a stranger on a subway with a kitchen knife and then repeatedly kicking him. The assault followed a verbal exchange where the victim asked the attacker to lower his voice.
Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez announced the sentence handed down to 33-year-old Sadam Adames of Brownsville. Adames received his sentence from Brooklyn Supreme Court Justice Heidi Cesare on Monday. He was convicted of first-degree attempted assault last month after a jury trial.
The incident occurred on September 13, 2022, at approximately 12:40 p.m. on a number 2 train traveling through Brooklyn. Adames, who was screaming profanities into his phone, was asked by a 49-year-old passenger to quiet down, leading to the violent altercation.
Adames attempted to stab the victim in the stomach but ended up stabbing him in the back during a struggle. The victim fell to the floor after being knocked onto the seats, where he was kicked in the face multiple times. Paramedics treated the victim at the scene before he was taken to Methodist Hospital for further care.
