DAVENPORT, Iowa— A man from southeastern Iowa was sentenced Thursday to nearly 22-years in prison for trafficking drugs. The U-S Attorney’s Office reports 44-year old Lloyd Davenport, of Burlington, must serve 262 months in prison for trafficking methamphetamine, followed by a five-year term of supervised release.
