The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Pennsylvania, Scranton, announced Isaiah Moore-Brown, 29, of Jim Thorpe, on Monday was sentenced to 101 months imprisonment and three years of supervised release by U.S. District Court Judge James M. Munley, for possessing with intent to distribute cocaine base, and for possessing firearms in furtherance of his narcotics trafficking.

According to U.S. Attorney David J. Freed, Moore-Brown pleaded guilty to distributing between 28 grams and 112 grams of crack cocaine in the Carbon County area in January 2017.

Law enforcement officials recovered narcotics, three firearms and ammunition during a search warrant execution at Moore-Brown’s Jim Thorpe residence.

The case was investigated by Homeland Security Investigations and the Pennsylvania Attorney General’s Office. Assistant U.S. Attorney Phillip J. Caraballo prosecuted the case.

The case is part of Project Safe Neighborhoods, a program bringing together all levels of law enforcement and the communities they serve to reduce violent crime and make neighborhoods safer for everyone. The Department of Justice reinvigorated PSN in 2017 as part of its renewed focus on targeting violent criminals, directing all U.S. attorney’s offices to work in partnership with federal, state, local and tribal law enforcement and the local community to develop effective, locally based strategies to reduce violet crime.
