A Floyd County man will serve 16 years in federal prison after pleading guilty to drug and gun charges.
Prosecutors say 35‑year‑old Justin K. Bryant of Martin admitted to possessing meth and fentanyl with intent to distribute and using a firearm during a drug trafficking crime, tied to two separate traffic stops where officers found meth, fentanyl and evidence he tried to destroy the drugs.
Sentencing guidelines called for 180 to 225 months, and the judge imposed 192 months-one year above the minimum.
