Louisiana man sentenced to 17 years for mailing drugs to Gulfport
A Louisiana man was sentenced to 17 years in federal prison for sending mail to Gulfport.
The incident was part of a sting after a confidential source told Homeland Security investigators that Deandrea Keion Malbrough, 30, was sending methamphetamine to South Mississippi, according to information from the U.S. Attorney’s Office.
