A St. Louis man has been sentenced for drug offenses he committed in Southern Illinois.

61 year old Gary Skinner will serve 10 years in federal prison after pleading guilty to conspiracy to distribute meth in Williamson and Massac Counties last year.

Skinner was arrested on Oct. 26, 2015 during a traffic stop on Interstate 57 in Williamson County. He was found to have more than 200 grams of Ice – a pure form of meth.
