A 55-year-old Kodiak man will spend five years in a federal prison for trafficking methamphetamine.
The U.S. Attorney’s office says in a release that Teodoro Berdan was sentenced Friday in federal court in Anchorage.
Prosecutors say the U.S. Postal Service intercepted a package sent to him at a Kodiak residence where he rented a room. Authorities replaced most of the meth with a sham substance last February and delivered the package.
Shortly after, federal officers raided Berdan’s room and found him hiding the box of drugs. In July, he pleaded guilty to a single count of possession with intent to distribute over 100 grams of a mixture and substance containing meth.
