Reynaldo Parra-Villagrana, 27, of Tucson, was sentenced last week by United States District Judge Rosemary Márquez to 33 months in federal prison, followed by 60 months of supervised release, for his role in a cross-border narcotics distribution conspiracy.
Parra-Villagrana pleaded guilty to Possession with Intent to Distribute Methamphetamine on December 18, 2023.
In May 2019, during a multi-year investigation by the Drug Enforcement Administration, Parra-Villagrana delivered 878.8 grams of pure methamphetamine to an undercover officer in the parking lot of a sporting goods store in Tucson.
Parra-Villagrana was acting on behalf of a Mexico-based drug supplier when he delivered the methamphetamine to the undercover officer.Â
