(Walhalla, SC.) Steven Ranslow Allison was found guilty by an Oconee County jury Tuesday of Distribution of Methamphetamine, 3rd Offense. The Honorable Roger Couch sentenced Allison to 25 years in prison.
On July 15, 2013, narcotics agents with the Oconee County Sheriff’s Office made a controlled buy to purchase methamphetamine from Steven Allison. The Anderson/Oconee Regional Forensics Lab confirmed that the substance which was purchased was meth. The sale of the drugs by the defendant was vencaptured on both video and audio surveillance.
“The defendant will now spend the next quarter of a century in prison, as he should,” stated Solicitor Chrissy Adams. “This is his third offense. It is clear that habitual offenders such as Allison are a true menace to our society and lack any regard for the tremendous toll these drugs take on our community. We are very happy with the verdict and the sentence.”
