Authorities say that the deputy intended to bring the drugs into the North County Correctional Facility. An inmate at the North County Correctional Facility, Terance Anthony Warner, was also sentenced yesterday to two years in prison for helping the deputy arrange to deliver the drugs.
Peter Felix had a Los Angeles criminal defense attorney help him in the criminal case. At the sentencing, attorney Spencer R. Vodnoy said that his client cooperated with investigators during the case and that Peter Felix deeply regretted his actions.
Los Angeles criminal defense attorneys typically try to argue for the lowest possible sentence on behalf of their clients. In California, a possession of a controlled substance for sale conviction can lead to a prison sentence up to four years for each count, according to California Health and Safety Code Section 11351.
