Anderson man convicted of dealing methamphetamine
ANDERSON — A Madison County Circuit Court Division 6 jury has found an Anderson man guilty on a charge of dealing methamphetamine.
The jury Tuesday found Demond James White, 52, 2000 block of East Seventh Street, guilty on the felony charge. He is also charged with being a habitual offender.
Judge Mark Dudley set sentencing for July 18. White faces a possible 50-year prison sentence. The state's case was presented by deputy prosecutors Matt Savage and Jen Haley.
According to a probable cause affidavit filed by Detective LeeAnn Dwiggins with the Madison County Drug Task Force, a confidential informant purchased 10 grams of methamphetamine on Jan. 20, 2021, for $300.
The court document states that on Dec. 22, 2021, White was alleged to be selling thousands of fake Roxy pills (fentanyl) from a garage on West 12th Street. He had bonded out of jail.
White was sentenced to 14 years in prison in 2008 after pleading guilty to a charge of dealing cocaine in Circuit Court Division 6.
