Monroeville Man Sentenced to Eight Years in Prison for Narcotics and Firearms Violations

PITTSBURGH, Pa. - A resident of Monroeville, Pennsylvania, has been sentenced to eight years of imprisonment and three years of supervised release on his conviction of violating federal narcotics and firearms laws, United States Attorney Eric G. Olshan announced today.

United States Senior District Judge Arthur J. Schwab imposed the sentence on Tiryn Green, 27.

According to information presented to the Court, following two controlled buys of heroin and fentanyl from Green in February 2022, investigators from the PA Office of Attorney General Bureau of Narcotics Investigation (BNI) Unit as well as the Monroeville Police Department executed a search warrant on Green’s Monroeville residence. During that search, investigators recovered drug evidence along with multiple firearms, high capacity magazines, and several hundred rounds of ammunition. Under federal law, Green is prohibited from possessing firearms and ammunition based upon several prior felony convictions.

Assistant United States Attorney Michael R. Ball prosecuted this case on behalf of the government.

United States Attorney Olshan commended the Monroeville Police Department, the PA Office of Attorney General BNI Unit, and the Drug Enforcement Administration for the investigation leading to the successful prosecution of Green.
