Acting United States Attorney Steve Butler of the Southern District of Alabama announced that Adam Khan Le, 36, of Panama City, Florida, was sentenced today in federal court on a charge involving his participation in a scheme to grow and distribute marijuana. Le pled guilty to the charge in May of 2017.
United States District Court Judge William H. Steele sentenced Le to a year and a day in prison on the conspiracy charge, to be followed by a four-year term of supervised release. Le will undergo treatment for drug abuse while in prison and as a condition of his supervised release. No fine was imposed, but the judge ordered that Le pay the mandatory $100 special assessment and that Le forfeit any interest in the properties alleged to have facilitated the illegal activity.
The case was investigated by the Mobile County Sheriff’s Office, the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency and the Department of Homeland Security Investigations. It was prosecuted in the United States Attorney’s Office by Assistant United States Attorney Gloria Bedwell.
