CLARKSBURG, W.Va. — A Detroit, Michigan man has been sentenced to 78 months in federal prison for his role in a drug trafficking operation that distributed methamphetamine and fentanyl in Harrison County, U.S. Attorney Matthew L. Harvey announced.
Malik Rashard Fikes, also known as “Face,” was sentenced Monday for supplying drugs for a conspiracy that distributed methamphetamine and fentanyl from a residence in Shinnston. Fikes will serve three years of supervised release following his prison sentence.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Andrew Cogar prosecuted the case. Chief U.S. District Judge Thomas S. Kleeh presided.
The case was investigated by the Greater Harrison Drug Task Force, a HIDTA-funded initiative.
The case is part of Operation Take Back America, a nationwide initiative that marshals the full resources of the Department of Justice to achieve the total elimination of cartels and transnational criminal organizations, protect communities from violent crime and repel the invasion of illegal immigration.
