A 33-year-old Mountain Home man was sentenced to eight years in prison during a session of Baxter County Circuit Court Thursday.
Sean Rice pled guilty to charges in two active drug-related cases filed just a month apart last year.
One of the cases involved a traffic stop in late January 2019 in which Rice was found to have 16 small plastic bags containing methamphetamine and seven Suboxone strips. Rice was also in possession of a cellphone containing texts related to the sale of controlled substances.
A month later, Rice was arrested again after officers went to a home along South Street in Mountain Home searching for him.
They found Rice. They also found numerous small plastic bags with a white residue, used syringes and spoons.
