A Danville man has been sentenced to 107 months in federal prison for drug distribution offenses after being found with methamphetamine, cocaine, and fentanyl during a traffic stop in September 2024.
Jerrod Allen-Jamal Wimbush, 36, pleaded guilty in June 2025 to possessing with the intent to distribute methamphetamine, cocaine, and fentanyl. The sentencing took place on October 10.
“Illegal narcotics fuel addictions, violence and death,” said Acting United States Attorney Robert N. Tracci. “This office will aggressively prosecute those who traffic deadly drugs for profit.”
According to court documents, officers from the Danville Police Department stopped Wimbush on September 13, 2024, for speeding. A K-9 officer’s dog alerted to the presence of narcotics around the vehicle. After initially denying having drugs, Wimbush admitted there were drugs in the car. Officers executed a search warrant and seized 17 grams of methamphetamine, .254 grams of fentanyl, and 41.53 grams of cocaine.
On October 17, 2024, agents searched Wimbush’s residence in Danville and recovered an additional 127 grams of fentanyl and over 200 grams of cocaine.
The announcement was made by Robert N. Tracci, Acting United States Attorney for the Western District of Virginia, and Anthony A. Spotswood, Special Agent in Charge of the Washington Field Division of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.
The case was investigated by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives along with the Danville Police Department. Assistant U.S. Attorneys Keith Parrella and Matthew Miller prosecuted the case.
