The county roster lists him under booking number 002600000536.<\/p>\n<p>The roster shows one active felony charge. That charge is first-degree controlled substance sale under Minnesota Statute 152.021, subdivision 1(1).<\/p>\n<h2>First-Degree Drug Sale Charge<\/h2>\n<p>The allegation involves 17 grams or more of a mixture containing cocaine or methamphetamine.<\/p>\n<p>State law allows sales from several occasions during one 90-day period to be combined.<\/p>\n<p>The combined weight must reach at least 17 grams. The mixture must contain cocaine or methamphetamine.<\/p>\n<p>The law classifies the allegation as a first-degree controlled substance crime.<\/p>\n<p>The public roster gives no narrative about the alleged conduct. It does not identify an alleged sale location.<\/p>\n<p>The entry also does not name other people connected with the case. No police officer names appear in this report.<\/p>\n<h2>Maximum Penalty Under State Law<\/h2>\n<p>A conviction can bring up to 30 years in prison. It can also bring a fine of up to $1 million.<\/p>\n<p>Those are maximum penalties under Minnesota law. A sentence depends on the case facts and criminal history.<\/p>\n<p>Court rulings and state sentencing rules can also affect a sentence. The charge alone does not determine an outcome.<\/p>\n<p><!-- Upload the supplied booking image to WordPress.
