PRESS RELEASE
On July 24, 2014, Luther Lashawn Brothers, age 34, was sentenced to 25 years in the Maryland Division of Corrections, without the possibility of parole, for being in Possession of Heroin with the Intent to Distribute. The Defendant is ineligible for parole because he has two prior narcotic distribution convictions from Virginia. The Defendant was found guilty, following a bench trial in the Wicomico County Circuit Court, by the Honorable Raymond E. Beck on April 30, 2014.
The Defendant was convicted for being in possession of 41.5 grams of heroin. At trial, the State’s expert witness testified that this amount of heroin, if broken down to the smallest level, would provide 4,150 individual bags of heroin with a street value of nearly $83,000.
“It has been well publicized that heroin use and abuse is a serious problem for Wicomico County. Removing heroin dealers from our streets is but one way that we are combating this problem.” said Wicomico County State’s Attorney Matthew Maciarello.
State’s Attorney Maciarello commended the members of the Wicomico County Sheriff’s Office, including Cpl. Williams and DFC Richardson, and the Maryland State Police for their work in the investigation of this case. Mr. Maciarello also thanked Mr. Andrew Illuminati, Assistant State’s Attorney, who prosecuted this case.

ReplyDeleteHaha look at that punk face.

ReplyDeleteObama's lost son!
ReplyDeleteThis mans constitutional rights were trampled during the stop. He was a passenger in a speeding car. He had no warrants and the driver and car were legit.
ReplyDeleteThe police say the dashcam video is missing and the judge railroaded him into the conviction. He's going home on appeals. Unlike the local judges who want the publicity the federal judges won't care and will overturn this blatant violation of his rights.
