Wayne.  Judge Robert O. Bowen sentenced Oiler to serve 12 years executed at the Indiana Department of Correction.  None of the sentence was suspended.

Oiler admitted in open court that in June of 2014, he sold pills in Marshall County to an undercover officer from the Marshall County Undercover Narcotics Investigation Team who investigated the case.

Prosecuting Attorney Nelson Chipman praised the Marshall County Undercover Narcotics Investigation Team for its dedicated work.  “The Marshall County Undercover Narcotics Investigation Team continues to diligently work to reveal and investigate drug dealing in our county.  Drug dealing is a blight and a drain on the community.  It must be prosecuted accordingly.”

Oiler remains incarcerated in the Marshall County Jail until he is transported to the Indiana Department of Correction.
