Prison
terms handed down in Northern Judicial District of Georgia for Career Criminals
Atlanta – Several metro-Atlanta
residents were recently sentenced to serve time after being convicted on
varying federal narcotic-related charges, according to information received
from the U.S. Attorney's Office in the Northern Judicial District of Georgia.
Charles Dwayne Gray, 41, was sentenced
to 97 months in federal prison and 48 months supervised release by U.S.
District Court Judge Thomas W. Thrash Jr. Gray pleaded guilty on Feb. 3 to
charges Title 21, USC 846, drug conspiracy and Title 21, USC 841(a)(1),
manufacturing, distribution or possession of a controlled substance. This case
was investigated by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives,
(ATF) Atlanta IV, OCEDTF Strike Force and the Atlanta Police Department (APD).
Dontavious Parks, 32, pleaded guilty on
Feb. 23, to charges of Title 21, USC 841(a)(1) and Title 21, USC 846. On
Monday, Parks was sentenced to serve 70 months in the custody of the Bureau of
Prisons followed by 48 months supervised release. Parks was implicated in the
conspiracy for his involvement during several undercover narcotics
transactions.
Charles Edward Carr Jr., 47, received a
sentence of 30 months in federal prison followed by 12 months of supervised
release Monday. Carr pleaded guilty to violations of Title 21 USC 843(b), use
of communication device in furtherance of drug trafficking on Jan. 31. This
case was also investigated by the (ATF) Atlanta IV, OCEDTF Strike Force and

“These sentencings highlight the
significant impact that the cooperation between federal and local authorities
can have on violent crime in our region,” said ATF Special Agent in Charge of
the Atlanta Field Division Scott Sweetow. “This case and its convictions are a
prime example of how cooperation among a host of law enforcement agencies can
lead to the dismantling of a significant drug trafficking organization that
blighted a community.”
