PEORIA, Ill. – A Peoria man is going to prison for more than a decade after pleading guilty late last year to charges connected with methamphetamine.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office says Demetrice Sharp, 39, was sentenced to 200 months on several counts of meth trafficking, conspiracy to distribute meth, and possession of meth with intent to deliver.
Authorities allegedly discovered nearly three hundred grams in the bedroom of an apartment occupied by Sharp and Lashonda Patterson.
Prosecutors say the distribution from the sales and search warrant totaled more than 450 grams.
Patterson has already pleaded guilty to a meth conspiracy charge, and is scheduled to be sentenced May 10th.
