CLEARFIELD – A Woodland man who pleaded guilty to possessing drugs was sentenced to state prison during court Monday.
Bradley Alan Maines, 47, was one of three people in a vehicle found to contain “numerous large blocks of yellow, blue and pink in color, suspected to be a large amount of Fentanyl,” in May 2023, according to the affidavit.
Police say they saw Clint Addleman, 47, a “known drug dealer,” Maines, who was also known to sell drugs, and a female, walking across a convenience store parking lot in Lawrence Township.
After discovering Maines had an active warrant, the officer followed their vehicle as it left the lot and initiated a traffic stop on the Interstate 80 eastbound on-ramp.
Addleman was the driver and Maines, a passenger, was informed about his warrants. During this time, the officer noticed a bag sitting suspiciously on the center arm rest where he felt it was not secure. Later it was found to contain the blocks of Fentanyl.
In the backseat, officers located a backpack that had a plastic container with white residue and $124 in cash. In a make-up bag, they found drug paraphernalia, pills suspected to be Xanax, three containers and a glass vial with suspected Fentanyl and $990 in cash, according to the report.
Maines pleaded guilty to possession with intent to deliver Fentanyl and was sentenced by President Judge Fredric J. Ammerman to a prison term of 30 months to five years in state prison.
Conspiracy/robbery charges against Maines in an unrelated second case were withdrawn after it was determined he was not directly involved in the actual incident that happened in Hyde last October.
In March, Ammerman sentenced Addleman to serve a total of 42 months to 10 years in state prison for conspiracy/possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance in one case, possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance-methamphetamine in a second case, criminal trespass in a third and burglary in the last case.
