SPARTANBURG, S.C. — Travis Legg, 44, of Woodruff, has been sentenced to more than 10 years in federal prison after he pleaded guilty to conspiracy to distribute over 500 grams of methamphetamine and over 40 grams of fentanyl.

Evidence presented to the court showed that in 2023, a joint federal and local investigation revealed Legg was part of a fentanyl and methamphetamine trafficking conspiracy based in Spartanburg. Legg was indicted for his role in the conspiracy and was arrested on federal charges in June 2024, at which time he possessed additional methamphetamine and marijuana.

United States District Judge Donald C. Coggins sentenced Travis Legg to 126 months imprisonment to be followed by a five-year term of court-ordered supervision.
