Tyshon Young, 30, of Asbury Park was handed a 21-month term, while Matthew Miller, 41, of Neptune, was given three years, according to information from New Jersey U.S. Attorney Paul Fishman's office.

Both had accepted guilty pleas to a charge of conspiracy to distribute heroin. Each will be required to serve three years of supervision after release.

Prosecutors said that Young, aka "Young Money" and "Young Boy," admitted working with reputed leader Rufus Young, storing 40 to 60 grams of heroin in his dwelling and spreading it through Ocean and Monmouth Counties between February 2013 and March 2014.

Prosecutors did not elaborate on Miller's role in the drug trafficking organization.

Twenty of the 21 original arrestees have pleaded guilty, authorities said.
