Gregory Morrison, a 54-year-old resident of Michigan City, Indiana, has been sentenced to over 12 years in prison. United States District Court Judge Cristal C. Brisco delivered the sentence after Morrison pleaded guilty to possession with intent to distribute cocaine. The announcement was made by United States Attorney Clifford D. Johnson.
Morrison's sentence includes 151 months in prison and an additional six years of supervised release. Court documents revealed that during the summer of 2023, Morrison distributed a total of 122 grams of cocaine on eight separate occasions. A search conducted at his residence in September 2023 uncovered an additional 148 grams of cocaine and $1,700 in cash. This marks Morrison's fourth conviction related to drug distribution offenses.
The investigation was carried out by the United States Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and its North Central Laboratory, with support from the LaPorte County Drug Task Force, the Michigan City Police Department, and the LaPorte County Prosecutor’s Office. Assistant United States Attorney Katelan McKenzie Doyle prosecuted the case.
