A Jackson man has admitted guilt in a methamphetamine distribution conspiracy. Marcus Davis, aged 44, entered his plea on December 11, 2024, following an eight-day trial in federal court. Evidence presented by prosecutors indicated that Davis conspired with another person to possess and distribute two-and-a-half pounds of methamphetamine over nine days in December 2019.
Davis is due for sentencing on March 10, 2025. He could face up to 20 years in prison. The final sentence will be determined by a federal district court judge who will consider the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and other legal factors.
The announcement was made by U.S. Attorney Todd W. Gee from the Southern District of Mississippi and Special Agent in Charge Robert Eikhoff from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). The FBI conducted the investigation into the case.
Assistant U.S. Attorneys Shundral Cole and Samuel Goff are handling the prosecution.
