WORCESTER, MA- A Worcester man was sentenced in federal court in Worcester on Thursday, on federal methamphetamine charges.
Adam Germano, 37, was sentenced to 15 years in prison, five years of supervised release, and ordered to pay $73,343. On Oct. 5, Germano pleaded guilty to conspiring to distribute and to distributing methamphetamine. Germano has been in custody since his arrest in March 2017.
Germano admitted to shipping large quantities of methamphetamine into Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Florida and to distributing methamphetamine to dealers and others in Massachusetts and New Hampshire for cash.
In January 2017, Germano arranged for a package to be shipped through U.S. mail from Las Vegas to Worcester. The package was intercepted and authorities found more than two kilograms of approximately 97 percent pure methamphetamine.
In March 2017, during a traffic stop in Concord, N.H., police found methamphetamine and a handgun hidden in the engine of the car that Germano was driving.
