Escambia Man Gets Life Sentence In $2 Million Drug Conspiracy
June 15, 2012
An Escambia County man has been sentenced to life in prison after being convicted on federal drug conspiracy charges.
Leroy Jamal Lymons, 34, was found guilty of participating in a conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute in excess of five kilograms of cocaine in the Northern District of Florida and elsewhere. The testimony at trial established that Lymons was a supervisory-level conspirator in a multi-state drug operation and responsible, along with his co-conspirators, for distributing about 80 kilograms of cocaine between January 1, 2010, and April 21, 2010.
The wholesale value of the cocaine was estimated to be in excess of two million dollars.
The organization was identified and systematically dismantled by a federal task force comprised of federal, state and local officers. The investigation has resulted in multiple federal and state arrests and indictments in Florida and elsewhere, the seizure of additional kilograms of cocaine and thousands of dollars in illegal drug proceeds, and the seizure of vehicles and other assets connected with this conspiracy.
The case was investigated by the United States Drug Enforcement Administration in Pensacola, with the assistance of the Internal Revenue Service-Criminal Investigation Division, the
Pensacola Police Department, and the Escambia County Sheriff’s Department.

REGARDING:
“You call Lymons a Gentleman?”
Naturally.
It does me no harm to be polite to others or speak of them respectfully even if I disagree with their actions.
