A man arrested last week after he allegedly sold methamphetamine to a drug task force informant was charged in Freeborn County District Court with second-degree sale of meth and third-degree possession of the drug.

The man, Adonis Adolph Dorman, 28, now faces 25 years imprisonment for the second-degree sales charge and 20 years imprisonment for the third-degree possession charge. He faces combined fines of up to $750,000.

According to court documents filed last Friday, Freeborn County Sheriff’s Office deputy Corey Farris with the South Central Drug Task Force, along with other task force agents, participated Oct. 30 in the setting up and surveillance of the sale.

On Oct. 29, Farris met with the informant who told Farris he could purchase an ounce of meth from Dorman for $2,400, reports state.

Court documents indicate the informant met with Dorman Oct. 30, went in Dorman’s black Cadillac Escalade to Hartland and to a car wash and then returned to the informant’s house. The informant got into his own vehicle and followed Dorman in the Escalade to the alley behind his residence on Minnesota Avenue.

While in the alley, Dorman told the informant to look down at the ground where a Newport cigarette pack was lying on the ground and to pick it up. He told the informant to put the $2,400 in cash into his Escalade and then wait 10 minutes before he left, the reports state.

Dorman left, and after waiting the 10 minutes the informant met with Farris and turned over the cigarette pack, which was found to contain a bag and a mixture that fielded positive for meth. It weighed about 9.6 grams, according to court documents.

Afterward, Farris drove to the area of Court Street and Euclid Avenue, where Dorman was arrested, documents state.

After searching Dorman, agents found the $2,400 from the sale and a ziplock bag containing 5.5 grams of a meth mixture.

Both bags are being forwarded to the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension’s forensic laboratory for analysis and weighing.

Dorman’s conditional bail was set at $100,000.
