WORCESTER – A federal judge sentenced a local man to prison for drug distribution on Friday, May 8.
Giang Tran, 36, of Webster, received a sentence of 10 years in prison and five years of supervised release. Tran entered a guilty plea in January to charges of conspiracy to distribute and to possess with intent to distribute controlled substances (50 grams or more of methamphetamine) and distribution of methamphetamine.
A federal grand jury indicted Tran on June 10, 2025.

On Jan. 2, 2025, Jan. 8, 2025, and Jan. 21, 2025, Tran delivered to undercover law enforcement at a commercial plaza in Everett. He also arranged delivery by an associate to Worcester.
Tran delivered or arranged the delivery of around 1 kilogram of methamphetamine through those deliveries.
