Stewart, 33, convicted of possession of cocaine and conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute cocaine, was sentenced to five years by Frederick County Circuit Court Judge G Edward Dwyer Jr. The judge ordered consecutive terms of 18 months and 42 months, noting failure to cooperate with investigators and lack of rehabilitation efforts.
