Man Sentenced to 10 Years in Prison for Methamphetamine Distribution
A Milwaukee man was sentenced to 10 years in prison for his role in a methamphetamine distribution ring in Northeast Wisconsin.
Levester R. Brown, 33, of Milwaukee, was sentenced to 120 months in federal prison for his involvement in the methamphetamine distribution ring.
According to court documents, Brown repeatedly traveled from his residence in Milwaukee to Phoenix, Arizona, to obtain pounds of pure methamphetamine.
He would then utilize the U.S. Postal Service to ship the methamphetamine to acquaintances in Milwaukee and Brown Deer, Wisconsin. Brown would then transport the drugs to his main distributor in Green Bay.
On June 6, 2017, Special Agents with the federal Drug Enforcement Administration and the U.S. Postal Inspection Service arrested Brown as he attempted to ship approximately 9 pounds of methamphetamine to his associates in Wisconsin.
Brown’s crime had a significant impact on the community, and he was given a harsh sentence by Chief U.S. District Court Judge William C. Griesbach.
Following his release from prison, Brown will serve 10 years on federal supervised release.
The case was investigated by the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, and the Brown County Drug Task Force.
Assistant United States Attorney Daniel R. Humble prosecuted the case.
