APPLETON, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – LeeRoy Blank was sentenced to six years in prison for methamphetamine delivery and possession.
He was also placed on extended supervision for six years, and must perform 150 hours of community service, court records show.
On August 22, 2017, investigators with the Lake Winnebago Area Metropolitan Enforcement Group – Drug Unit executed a search warrant at a hotel room and located over 350 grams of methamphetamine in a safe, numerous baggies of various shapes, colors, and sizes, drug ledgers, money transfer receipts, and a digital scale. Blank told investigators the methamphetamine belonged to him and that he regularly picked up 1/4 to 1/2 of a pound of methamphetamine for distribution. Blank explained the methamphetamine located in the safe was from a pound of methamphetamine he picked up the previous day, according to the state Dept. of Justice.
“In recent years, meth has caused significant harm to many Wisconsinites struggling with substance-use disorder,” said Attorney General Josh Kaul. “This sentencing brings accountability to a drug dealer who possessed hundreds of grams of that dangerous drug.”
