David X. Sullivan, United States Attorney for the District of Connecticut, announced that JORDAN FLYTHE, also known as "T," 33, of Hartford, was sentenced today by U.S. District Judge Victor A. Bolden in New Haven to 70 months of imprisonment and four years of supervised release for distributing fentanyl and cocaine.

According to court documents and statements made in court, on March 31, 2021, Flythe was sentenced in Hartford federal court to 36 months of imprisonment for distributing fentanyl and crack cocaine. He was released from federal prison in September 2022.

In August 2024, the Drug Enforcement Administration's Hartford Task Force and Middletown Police Department determined that Flythe was distributing fentanyl and other narcotics in Middletown. Between August and November 2024, investigators made multiple controlled purchases of fentanyl from Flythe.

Flythe has been detained since his arrest on March 6, 2025. On June 10, 2025, he pleaded guilty to possession with intent to distribute 40 grams or more of fentanyl and a quantity of cocaine.

This investigation was conducted by the DEA's Hartford Task Force, the Middletown Police Department, and the Hartford Police Department. The task force includes personnel from the DEA Hartford Resident Office, the Connecticut State Police, and the Bristol, Hartford, East Hartford, Enfield, Manchester, Middletown, New Britain, Rocky Hill, Wethersfield, and Windsor Locks Police Departments.

The case was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Reed Durham.
