A three-time convicted felon received a life prison sentence on Wednesday after he pleaded guilty to trafficking cocaine.
Dothan attorney Eric Davis said his client, 38-year-old Wade Green Jr., pleaded guilty to the trafficking cocaine charge.
“The sentence range was either life or life without the possibility of parole because of his priors,” Davis said.
Davis said Circuit Court Judge Larry Anderson sentenced Green to life in prison. Davis said his client had three prior felony drug convictions.
Davis said Green pleaded guilty after his drug trafficking trial had already started and the prosecution had presented its first witness.
Court records indicate Houston County Sheriff’s investigators arrested Green in June 2010 on the cocaine trafficking charge.
According to an earlier Dothan Eagle report, Green and two others, Harold Snell and Anthony Williams, were charged with trafficking about 2 ounces of cocaine from a home in the 200 block of East Wilson Street in Dothan.
