BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (WIAT) — A man from Tuscaloosa was sentenced for his role in a drug conspiracy, as announced by U.S. Attorney Prim Escalona on Monday.

He was found guilty of conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute methamphetamine and fentanyl, distributing methamphetamine and fentanyl, and the use of a communication facility to further a drug trafficking crime in November.

Terrance Stevens, 41, of Anniston, and Yannick Wolf, 35, of Anniston, were previously sentenced for a role in the drug conspiracy.
