Pulaski Man Sentenced to Nine Years
Posted on February 11, 2013

A Pulaski man was sentenced to nine years in prison and five years of supervised release for conspiracy to distribute and to possess, with intent to distribute cocaine, crack, and marijuana.

37 year old James Thomas Coffey, Jr. and 19 other defendants were accused of being involved in the conspiracy. Coffey said he admits that he should go to prison and that he sincerely hates disappointing his parents who he said, "didn't raise me like that."

His attorney told the court that she had been impressed at the turnaround of Coffey since his arrest. Four others are awaiting trial.
