A Las Vegas couple who ran an illegal darknet drug operation under the name "MrsFeelGood" has been sentenced to federal prison. Rushan Lavar Reed, 47, and Celeste Nicole Reed, 28, were sentenced to 51 months and 37 months, respectively, for their role in a sophisticated drug trafficking scheme that spanned six years and multiple online marketplaces.
According to prosecutors, the Reeds distributed pharmacy-grade pills—not homemade pressed pills—nationwide via at least seven darknet markets, including Monopoly, Versus, AlphaBay, and Dream. Their storefront sold oxycodone, hydrocodone, amphetamines, MDMA, codeine, Vyvanse, Dilaudid, and marijuana, using cryptocurrency to launder proceeds and avoid detection.
Law enforcement arrested the couple on October 11, 2023, at their Las Vegas home, where agents seized prescription pills, packaging materials, electronic devices, an AR-15, and several computers. Prosecutors say the Reeds used advanced security measures to hide their identities and transactions.
Both defendants pleaded guilty on October 22, 2024, to conspiracy to distribute controlled substances. In addition to their prison terms, U.S. District Court Judge Carl J. Nichols ordered them to serve three years of supervised release.
