MARTINSBURG, WV – Sean Jarred Davis, a 33-year-old Baltimore resident, has acknowledged his involvement in a significant fentanyl and heroin trafficking operation across Hampshire and Mineral Counties. Davis pleaded guilty to conspiracy charges related to possession with intent to distribute these drugs.
According to judicial proceedings and court documents, Davis was identified as the head of this narcotics organization. He managed the supply chain, delivering substantial amounts of heroin and fentanyl to individuals who then sold the drugs in the local counties on his behalf.
Davis now faces a potential maximum sentence of 20 years in federal prison. The sentencing will be conducted by a federal district court judge who will consider the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines among other statutory factors in determining the appropriate penalty.
The case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Lara Omps-Botteicher. The investigation was spearheaded by the Potomac Highlands Drug Task Force, which includes various local and federal law enforcement agencies such as the FBI, DEA, and West Virginia State Police.
This prosecution is part of a broader initiative under the Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Forces (OCDETF) program, aimed at disrupting and dismantling high-level drug trafficking and criminal networks threatening the U.S. U.S. Magistrate Judge Robert W. Trumble presided over the proceedings.
