BONIFAY -- A 32-year-old Bonifay man will serve at least 15 years in prison after he was convicted of trafficking in more than 200 grams of methamphetamine, according to the State Attorney’s Office.
Officers searching Jeffery Morrill’s barn on Oct. 16 found a couple soda bottles containing 328 grams of liquid containing meth, and prosecutors showed jurors during the one-day trial that Morrill, 32, bought six boxes of pseudoephedrine, a key ingredient in meth, during the three months before his arrest.
Because it’s trafficking charge, Morrill faces a minimum mandatory sentence, in this case 15 years, when he is sentenced July 16. Judge Christopher Patterson could sentence him to up to 30 years.
