MARTINSBURG, WV (LOOTPRESS) – Two men from Bunker Hill, West Virginia, have been sentenced for their roles in a major drug trafficking operation that distributed methamphetamine, fentanyl, cocaine, and heroin across Berkeley, Morgan, and Hampshire Counties.
Andrew Ross Hose, 40, received a 293-month (over 24 years) prison sentence, followed by five years of supervised release.
Bradley Allen Lopp, 36, was sentenced to 24 months in federal prison, with three years of supervised release to follow.
Federal prosecutors said both men worked with a drug trafficking organization to distribute large quantities of illegal narcotics throughout the Eastern Panhandle.
The case was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Lara Omps-Botteicher and investigated by the Potomac Highlands Drug Task Force, part of the High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area (HIDTA) program.
The prosecution is part of Operation Take Back America, a nationwide initiative aimed at dismantling drug cartels, combating transnational criminal organizations, and reducing violent crime through coordinated federal efforts.
U.S. District Judge Gina M. Groh presided over the sentencing.
