Background

James Phillip Womack was convicted in the Western District of Arkansas in 2024 for methamphetamine distribution.

The Case

In May 2024, Womack was sentenced to eight years (96 months) in federal prison and five years of supervised release for the distribution of more than five grams of actual methamphetamine. His conviction was part of a broader federal effort to target methamphetamine trafficking in the Arkansas region. Womack had served less than two years of his sentence before receiving clemency.
