Travis Legg, a 44-year-old resident of Woodruff, South Carolina, has been sentenced to more than 10 years in federal prison following his guilty plea to charges of conspiracy to distribute over 500 grams of methamphetamine and over 40 grams of fentanyl.
According to evidence presented in court, a joint investigation conducted by federal and local authorities in 2023 identified Legg as part of a drug trafficking operation based in Spartanburg. Legg was indicted for his involvement in the conspiracy and arrested on federal charges in June 2024. At the time of his arrest, he was found with additional quantities of methamphetamine and marijuana.
United States District Judge Donald C. Coggins handed down a sentence of 126 months imprisonment for Legg. Following his release from prison, he will be subject to five years of supervised release.
The prosecution was carried out under the Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Forces (OCDETF) program. The OCDETF initiative aims to identify and dismantle major drug trafficking organizations through coordinated efforts among federal, state, and local agencies.
