April 9, 2024

Cabrero

HART — A 52-year-old man was sentenced to 16 months to 10 years in prison for a methamphetamine possession conviction in Oceana County’s 51st Circuit Court Monday, April 8.

Juan Cabrero received credit for 34 days served in jail.

Cabrero was found guilty by a jury, Feb. 8, after 20 minutes of deliberations.

Cabrero was a passenger in a vehicle that was stopped by the Oceana County Sheriff’s Office April 20, 2022, and the driver was arrested on outstanding warrants, said Oceana County Prosecutor Joseph Bizon. Police discovered methamphetamine near the passenger seat and in a pair of jeans that were at Cabrero’s feet that also had his name on them. There were two separate baggies — one contained about a gram, and the other contained less than a gram.

The maximum penalty for methamphetamine possession is 10 years in prison.
