A Las Vegas couple will be spending the next few years in prison after being sentenced last Thursday for drug trafficking.
47-year old Rushan Lavar Reed was sentenced to 51 months, and 28-year old Celeste Nicole Reed was sentenced to 37 months in prison in U.S. District Court. They were also ordered to serve three years of probation.
The pair was sentenced for participating in what officials call a "long-term sophisticated drug trafficking conspiracy" for selling drugs on the dark web.
Both Reeds pleaded guilty in October of last year to the charge of conspiracy to distribute oxycodone, hydrocodone and amphetamine.
According to documents, the couple operated an online store called "MrsFeelGood" to distribute drugs across the country. In addition to the oxycodone, hydrocodone and amphetamines, they also sold MDMA, codeine, vyvanse, dilaudid and cannabis.
An arrest warrant was served at the Reed's house when they were arrested in October, where officers found multiple pills in prescription bottles, packaging materials, gloves and bags, empty pill bottles and an AR-15. A laptop that was found was designed to give the Reeds access to the dark web and protect against surveillance.
The case was investigated by the FBI Washington Field Office, the FBI Las Vegas Field Office, the USPIS Washington Division and USPIS Phoenix Division.
