A New Haven man has been sentenced to three years in prison for his role in trafficking methamphetamine pills, according to the U.S. Attorney for the District of Connecticut.

Gregory Grant, 34, received a sentence of 36 months of imprisonment and three years of supervised release from U.S. District Judge Stefan R. Underhill in Bridgeport.

According to court documents and statements made during the proceedings, Grant was involved in a drug distribution operation between January 2022 and March 2024. His co-conspirator, Tyrone Brown, sent parcels containing methamphetamine pills from Georgia to addresses in New Haven linked to Grant and others. Investigators identified about 79 suspicious parcels shipped from Brown to Grant during this period.

In January 2023, authorities intercepted one such parcel through a court-authorized search. Inside they found 16 ziplock sandwich bags containing more than four kilograms of methamphetamine pills as well as a firearm. The investigation also determined that Grant made multiple payments to Brown over the course of their conspiracy.

Grant has been held since his arrest on March 27, 2024. He pleaded guilty on March 12, 2025. Brown also pleaded guilty and was sentenced on December 2, 2025, receiving a ten-year prison term.

The investigation was led by the U.S. Postal Inspection Service and the Narcotics and Bulk Cash Trafficking Task Force. This task force includes members from several agencies: the U.S. Postal Inspection Service; the U.S. Postal Service – Office of the Inspector General; and police departments from Hartford, Plainville, and Meriden. Assistant U.S. Attorney Nathaniel J. Gentile prosecuted the case.
