Johnny Bobby Truong, a 33-year-old resident of Sacramento, was sentenced to 19 years in federal prison for his role in a methamphetamine trafficking conspiracy. The sentence was handed down by U.S. District Judge Dena M. Coggins, according to an announcement from U.S. Attorney Eric Grant.
Truong pleaded guilty to the charge on August 13, 2025.
Court documents show that between January 26, 2023, and May 10, 2024, Truong worked with others to distribute large quantities of methamphetamine, cocaine, and heroin in the Sacramento area. He supplied drugs to a local drug trafficking organization and managed a stash house used by the group. Members of this organization included individuals associated with a violent criminal street gang based in Sacramento.
The investigation involved several agencies: the Drug Enforcement Administration, the Sacramento Police Department, the Yuba County Sheriff’s Department, and the California Highway Patrol. Assistant U.S. Attorney Jason Hitt is leading the prosecution.
This case falls under Operation Take Back America, which is a national effort led by the Department of Justice aimed at combating illegal immigration and eliminating cartels and transnational criminal organizations to reduce violent crime across communities.
