Loniel Javon Andre Sterling-Jones, 34, Minot, was sentenced on Friday to three years in prison, with a requirement that he first serve one year and one day, followed by two years of supervised probation, for Class B felony possession with intent to deliver methamphetamine in May.

North Central District Court Judge Doug Mattson also ordered Sterling-Jones to obtain a chemical dependency evaluation and to pay $775 in court costs. He will also receive credit for 17 days already served.

In another case, Sterling-Jones received a deferred sentence for two Class A misdemeanor drug possession charges. They will be dismissed if he completes probation.
