A Spooner, WI man facing drug charges in Washburn County Circuit Court has been sentenced to prison.
Jeremy Englund, of Spooner, WI, was charged with multiple felonies earlier this year after an investigation led by the Spooner Police Department revealed that Englund was allegedly distributing drugs from a residence within Washburn County.
Public record indicates that Englund plead guilty on July 3, 2017, to his charges of Felony Possession of Methamphetamine and Felony Manufacture or Deliver THC (Marijuana).
Charges of Felony Possession of Narcotic Drugs, Felony Possession with Intent to Deliver Non-Narcotics, Misdemeanor Possession of Drug Paraphernalia, and Misdemeanor Resisting or Obstructing had also been filed against Englund; those were all dismissed but read in by the Court for consideration in sentencing.
The Court sentenced Englund to 3 years of initial confinement in State Prison followed by 3 years of extended supervision.
According to public record on June 16, 2017, Englund appeared for a Sentencing after Revocation Hearing on a case that was filed against him in 2014 in Washburn County Circuit Court.
In that case, Englund had been charged with Felony Possession of THC (Marijuana) With Intent, Possession of Narcotic Drugs, Possession of THC (2nd+ offense), Misdemeanor Bail Jumping, and Misdemeanor Possession of Drug Paraphernalia. In 2015 he was convicted of Possession of THC and Possession of Drug Paraphernalia and sentenced to 3 years of probation.
Public record shows that Englund's probation was revoked on May 4, 2017. Englund received a sentence of 3 years confinement in State Prison for his convictions stemming from that 2014 criminal case.
Englund's prison sentences on both criminal cases will run concurrently.
Englund still has pending felony meth-related charges in Sawyer County Circuit Court. The details of that case not known to DrydenWire.com at this time.
