Gregory J. Haanstad, United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Wisconsin, announced that on Aug. 15, 2016, Koleh B. Wilson (age: 37) of Phoenix, Arizona, (formerly of Milwaukee and Sheboygan Counties) appeared in federal court in Green Bay and was sentenced to 60 months in federal prison for his involvement in a conspiracy to distribute cocaine in Manitowoc County.
In pronouncing sentence, Chief United States District Court Judge William C. Griesbach noted the serious nature of Wilson’s crime and its ramifications for the Manitowoc community. The judge condemned Wilson’s prior record which included convictions in state court for possession of illegal narcotics. He concluded that Wilson was deserving of a substantial prison sentence. Following his release from prison, Wilson will serve 8 years on federal supervised release.
The case was investigated by the United States Drug Enforcement Administration, the Manitowoc County Sheriff’s Office, the Manitowoc Area MEG Unit, with assistance from the United States Marshal’s Service. The case was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Daniel R. Humble. # #
