Man sentenced to 20 years in prison for distributing meth

FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WOWO): A Fort Wayne man was sentenced to 20 years in prison Wednesday for distributing methamphetamine.

Calvin Mitchell, Jr., 39, pleaded guilty to distribution of more than 50 grams of methamphetamine. He will also serve five years of supervised release following his sentence.

Court documents reveal that law enforcement conducted controlled buys in February and March of 2021 of more than 380 grams of meth from Mitchell. Mitchell also bragged to officials that he had fentanyl available that was so strong “it was killing people.”

Officers searched his home and found large quantities of a cutting agent and more than $7,000 in cash. Lab tests confirmed the meth was 100 percent pure.

Let him brag behind bars..
If he has no remorse for the the lives he has ruined, nor the lives he has potentially taken… i don’t think he should ever be allowed to return to society, even after this sentence.
I have no tolerance for someone that places their own personal self-gain over the destruction of others. Calvin (and others like him) clearly don’t care about the lives of people they have helped destroy.
AND, to brag that it had lead to the death of his consumers.. grrr

I think that people like this should be able to repay their debt to society, behind bars, by becoming test subjects. …without recourse to their legal suppliers.

Seems more controlled… and yet fitting.

But not our society! No! Reformation is the ticket!
…incidentally, What is the recidivism of this individual?

Are there better stats out there?
The ones i see, make me want to watch out in 2046.

…I do hope he can change, but i have more hope for people 25 and younger, as opposed to a full grown adult, that knows better.
He knew what he was doing, and did it anyways.
