On Aug. 3, 2023, Allen Ray Thompson, 32, was arrested in rural Boone County, near Harrison, when Arkansas State Police stopped him and a dog trained in detecting drugs alerted the troopers.
Police found more than 10 pounds, or 4,934.5 grams, of methamphetamine, nearly 2,000 fentanyl pills, four firearms and one stolen firearm. Thompson is a previously convicted felon and could not lawfully possess a firearm.
Honorable Judge Timothy L. Brooks, of the U.S. District Court in Fayetteville, charged Thomspon with possession of methamphetamine and fentanyl with intent to distribute.
Thompson, a Lawton, Okla. native, was said to have text messages showing he was delivering drugs to customers in the Harrison area who had previously paid Thompson through an internet-based, peer-to-peer money transfer platform, the release said.
Thompson’s sentence includes $2,000 in fines and a five-year term of supervised release to follow his imprisonment.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation, State of Arkansas 14thJudicial District Drug Task Force and Arkansas State Police investigated the case.
