WICHITA, KAN. - A Wichita man was sentenced to 120 months in prison for selling methamphetamine to an undercover police officer.
According to court documents, Wayne F. Fleming, 41, of Wichita pleaded guilty to one count of distribution of a controlled substance.
In May 2021, Fleming sold drugs multiple times to an undercover officer with the Wichita Police Department. Testing by the Sedgwick County Regional Forensic Science Center showed the total amount Fleming sold to the officer to be more than 200 grams of pure methamphetamine.
"Mr. Fleming was federally indicted in 2021, but before a plea agreement was reached, Mr. Fleming went to state prison to serve time for offenses unrelated to the federal case," said U.S. Attorney Ryan A. Kriegshauser. "The Department of Justice doesn't forget. Not long after his release from a state prison, Mr. Fleming is now an inmate in a federal prison."
The Wichita Police Department investigated the case.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Katie Andrusak prosecuted the case.
