Cristian Andres Wilborn, 20, of Austin was sentenced to 25 years of probation for felony second-degree drugs-sale of 10 grams or more of a narcotic other than heroin within a 90-day period on Friday in Mower County District Court.
The charge was reduced from felony first-degree drugs-sale of 17 grams or more of methamphetamine as part of a plea agreement reached on Nov. 28.
Judge Kevin Siefken issued the sentence.
Court documents state Wilborn and Patricia Jane Boonreuang, also of Austin, sold methamphetamine to a confidential reliable informant (CRI) on Dec. 21, 2017. The CRI arranged the purchase with Boonreuang and was monitored by police as he drove to the parking lot of Star Liquor. Police then observed a 1998 Ford Taurus park next to the CRI’s vehicle. The CRI then got into the back seat of the Ford and purchased methamphetamine from Boonreuang, then met with police at a predetermined location and surrendered 28.177 grams of methamphetamine.
The CRI reported that Boonreuang was accompanied by a male, later identified as Wilborn, who handed him the drugs after he gave Boonreuang the money.
Boonreuang was recently sentenced to 58 months in the Minnesota Correctional Facility in Shakopee for felony second-degree drugs-sale of 10 grams of a narcotic other than heroin within a 90-day period.
In addition to the probation, Wilborn must follow 21 conditions, perform 40 hours of community service and pay $3,085 in fees. Failure to follow the conditions could result in 58 months in the Minnesota Correctional Facility in St. Cloud.
A review of Wilborn’s criminal record shows prior convictions for possession of drugs and drug paraphernalia and juvenile offenses for assault.
