A Walker County drug dealer has been sentenced to 30 years in prison, according to District Attorney Chris Arnt.
On February 7th police went to the camper of 49-year-old Jonathan Alexander on Cook Road to inquire about a wanted woman, Cheyanne Roberts, who was staying there, the DA says.
The DA says Alexander allowed police into the camper to obtain Roberts.
While inside, the DA says police found felony amounts of marijuana belonging to Alexander.
Police obtained a search warrant for the camper and the shed outside of it, the DA says.
The DA says police found half a pound of methamphetamine between the camper and the shed, as well as, an ounce and a half of marijuana.
There was also several other drugs, according to the DA, including mushrooms, LSD, and various pills, along with three firearms, all belonging to Alexander.
Alexander had the drugs individually bagged for resale, along with digital scales, the DA says.
According to the DA, the methamphetamine alone had a street value worth thousands of dollars.
Alexander was convicted of trafficking methamphetamine, possession of methamphetamine with intent to distribute, possession of marijuana with intent to distribute, possession of marijuana, and possession of a firearm during commission of a felony, the DA says.
The DA says the judge sentenced Alexander to 30 years in prison, with the first 20 years to be served in confinement.
