男子向卧底探员贩售冰毒判刑16年：同案两人一并判刑
位于佐治亚州 Candler County 的 Metter 市36岁男子 Nakia Donaldson，因分销冰毒认罪，被联邦地区法官 J. Randal Hall 判处192个月（16年）监禁与2,000美元罚款，其后4年监督释放。联邦检察官 Margaret E. Heap 当日宣布了这一判决，并指出联邦刑期没有假释。
据法庭文件与庭审证词，佐治亚州调查局（GBI）于2024年对 Donaldson 分销冰毒展开调查。2024年7月的一次受控购买中，调查人员用隐蔽电子录音设备录下 Donaldson 向卧底探员出售9盎司冰毒、收取1,400美元的全过程；GBI 法医科学部门沿海地区实验室的后续检测确认了冰毒成分。
同案被告、同样来自 Metter 的 Efram Todd Donaldson（57岁）被判48个月监禁与2,000美元罚款，其后3年监督释放；Justin E. Aldrich（40岁）被判已服刑期与1,500美元罚款，其后3年监督释放。两人均已就分销冰毒认罪。
联邦检察官 Margaret E. Heap 表示：「联邦与地方执法部门迅速行动、切断了这条供应链，我们的社区今天安全得多。」GBI 局长 Chris Hosey 表示，这次判刑源于出色的卧底工作，揭露了一个危险的毒品分销网络。

Man Sentenced to 16 Years for Selling Methamphetamine to Undercover Agents: Two Co-Defendants Also Sentenced
Nakia Donaldson, 36, of Metter, a city in Candler County, Georgia, was sentenced by U.S. District Court Judge J. Randal Hall to 192 months (16 years) in prison and a $2,000 fine, followed by four years of supervised release, after pleading guilty to distribution of methamphetamine, U.S. Attorney Margaret E. "Meg" Heap announced. There is no parole in the federal system.
According to court documents and testimony, in 2024 the Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI) initiated an investigation into the distribution of methamphetamine by Donaldson. During a July 2024 controlled purchase, investigators used covert electronic recording devices to capture Donaldson selling nine ounces of methamphetamine to undercover agents for $1,400. Testing by the GBI Division of Forensic Science at the Coastal Regional Lab confirmed the presence of methamphetamine.
Donaldson's co-defendants, Efram Todd Donaldson, 57, of Metter, was sentenced to 48 months in prison and a $2,000 fine followed by three years of supervised release, and Justin E. Aldrich, 40, of Metter, was sentenced to time served and a $1,500 fine followed by three years of supervised release, after both pleaded guilty to distribution of methamphetamine.
"Our communities are significantly safer today because federal and local law enforcement moved quickly to sever this supply chain," said U.S. Attorney Heap. GBI Director Chris Hosey said the sentencing resulted from undercover work that exposed a dangerous drug distribution operation.
