JOHNSTOWN, PA.- A 39-year-old Coalport, Pennsylvania, woman will be spending the next three years on federal probation, after being sentenced on Monday, for her role in a drug trafficking conspiracy that distributed large quantities of methamphetamine throughout Blair, Cambria, Centre, and Clearfield Counties, within the Western District of Pennsylvania.

     According to Acting U.S. Attorney Troy Rivetti, on Monday, September 22, 2025, Lesley Wilt, 39, of Coalport, Pennsylvania, appeared in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania and was sentenced by U.S. District Court Judge Stephanie L. Haines to time served to approximately six months in federal prison, to be followed by three years of supervised release, for her conviction of Conspiracy to Possess with Intent to Distribute a Controlled Substance, Methamphetamine.

According To Court Documents

     According to court documents and statements made in the District Court, during a narcotics investigation, Wilt was identified during a six-month wiretap as an individual who participated in the distribution of large quantities of methamphetamine to various individuals throughout the Western District of Pennsylvania.

     Specifically, Wilt assisted Jason Lynn, an Altoona-based narcotics distributor, in redistributing the illicit narcotics to others after Lynn obtained the narcotics from a New York-based supplier. At this time, Lynn is currently awaiting sentencing.

     Acting U.S. Attorney Rivetti commended the investigative work of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, the U.S. Postal Service Office of Inspector General, the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, Homeland Security Investigations, the Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigations, the Pittsburgh Bureau of Police, and the Pennsylvania State Police, which led to the successful prosecution of Wilt.
