LAKE HAVASU CITY – A Kingman man charged in Lake Havasu City drug cases is being sent to the Arizona Department of Corrections for 7.5 years. The punishment Mohave County Superior Court Judge Doug Camacho imposed Friday was mandated in a plea agreement approved in the prosecution of Brian Wolf, 40.
Wolf was already on probation for possessing drugs in Lake Havasu in 2016 when he was arrested on August 30, 2017. A usable amount of heroin was seized when officers executed a search warrant at the defendants’ home in the 3600 block of Jamaica Drive, according to former deputy county attorney Jaimye Ashley.
The case was pending when confidential informants told officers they could purchase drugs from Wolf. Ashley told the Court that detectives met with the informants, providing them “buy” money and surveillance equipment so any drug sale communication and activity would be captured electronically.
The informants reportedly spent $300 to purchase almost seven grams of heroin and nearly one gram each of methamphetamine and marijuana. Wolf admitted probation violations and is convicted of sale of dangerous drugs and possession of narcotic drugs.
