PHILADELPHIA.– United States Attorney Jacqueline C. Romero announced that Tory Garvin, 49, of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, was sentenced today by United States District Court Judge Wendy Beetlestone to 180 months in prison, to be followed by five years of supervised release, for possessing large quantities of methamphetamine and unlawfully possessing ammunition.
Garvin was charged by indictment in June 2022, and in October of last year pleaded guilty to one count of distribution of 50 grams or more of methamphetamine, one count of possession with intent to distribute 50 grams or more of methamphetamine, and possession of ammunition by a felon.
“Tory Garvin was a significant supplier of methamphetamine in Philadelphia, found in possession of about 10 pounds of the drug,” said U.S. Attorney Romero. “My office and our partners will continue to bring to justice the people flooding our neighborhoods with illegal narcotics, to help boost the city’s safety, health, and quality of life.”
The case was investigated by the DEA and the Pennsylvania State Police as part of the Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force (OCDETF) program and is being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorneys Timothy Lanni and Angella Middleton.
