Escambia County Man Gets 20 Years In Meth Case
February 2, 2012
An Escambia County man was sentenced to 20 years on multiple drug charges Wednesday.
Daniel Ducharme was convicted by an Escambia County Jury of trafficking in methamphetamine (200g or more), possession of a firearm with altered serial number, and possession of drug paraphernalia. Following the trial, Judge Jan Shackelford sentenced Ducharme to 20 years state prison with a 15 year minimum mandatory.
The Escambia County Sheriff’s Office served a search warrant on Ducharme’s residence and found an active meth lab in the bathroom of the apartment. Ducharme was found immediately outside of the bathroom with a co-defendant. A handgun with a sanded off serial number was located in the kitchen, while multiple pieces of drug paraphernalia were found throughout the entire apartment and outside trash. Ducharme admitted to making the meth in the apartment as well as the possession of the firearm, according to State Attorney Bill Eddins.
Ducharme has additional charges pending for sale of methamphetamine and possession of listed chemical.
