A man has been sentenced to more than nine years in prison for drug trafficking in Sullivan County.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office says Jahreek Bush, 29, moved fentanyl and cocaine while armed with a gun.
He was arrested in 2023 as he arrived for a drug deal in Monticello.
Officers say he had a fanny pack with a semiautomatic handgun, more than 100 packages of fentanyl and several bags of cocaine.
Bush falsely labeled the drugs as heroin, according to the Department of Justice.
Bush will also face three years of supervised release.
