A federal judge on Monday sentenced a Spokane to more than 13 years in federal prison after he earlier pleaded guilty to possessing methamphetamines.

Jason M. Clark, 45, of Spokane, pleaded guilty in May of possession of with intent to deliver 50 grams or more of methamphetamines. U.S. District Court Judge Robert Whaley sentenced Clark to serve 160 months in prison.

Clark was arrested as part of a Spokane Police investigation, U.S. Attorney Bill Hyslop said in a news release. “The federal, state and local enforcement agencies who worked on this case should be commended for their ongoing commitment to” investigate indivduals trafficking in meth, Hyslop said in the release.
