A Fennimore man has been sentenced to 30 months in federal prison for possessing methamphetamine with intent to distribute.
Jerry Koch, 59, Fennimore, Wisconsin was sentenced on December 10, 2020 by Chief U.S. District Judge James D. Peterson to 30 months in federal prison.
On August 1, 2020, investigators with the Richland-Iowa-Grant Drug Task Force arranged for the controlled purchase of methamphetamine from Koch.
After the completion of the controlled purchase, the investigators arrested Koch and found him in possession of 58 grams of methamphetamine, drug paraphernalia, and approximately $8,000 cash.
During a post-arrest interview, Koch admitted that he sold methamphetamine to support his personal addiction.
The charge against Koch was the result of an investigation conducted by the Richland-Iowa-Grant Drug Task Force and the Grant County Sheriff’s Office.
The prosecution of the case has been handled by Assistant U.S. Attorney Chadwick M. Elgersma.
