MIDLAND, TX -- A Midland County jury took less than 10 minutes to convict a Carlsbad, TX man of possession with intent to deliver 20 grams of methamphetamine.  

According to a press release from the Midland County District Attorney’s office, 43-year-old Troy Don Young was transporting 20 grams of meth from San Angelo to Midland when he was stopped by Midland Police Department Narcotics detectives on Nov. 2017.  

Young has a history of drug arrests in Tom Green County and has spent time in prison according to court records.  

The Midland County jury sentenced Young to 30 years in prison earlier this week.  He was facing 5 to 99 years or life in prison and a fine of up to $10,000.
