Leslie Salmond was sentenced Wednesday to 7 to 15 years in state prison, after investigators issued a search warrant for his Maple Street home and discovered cocaine, $2,900 in cash, a Ruger 380 handgun, a digital scale, and a razor blade with white residue on it, on April 19, 2019, according to the Berks County District Attorney's office.
Salmond also plead guilty last week to possession with intent to deliver cocaine, which will add an additional two and a half to 10 years to his state prison sentence, the DA's office said.
The case was investigated by City of Reading CI Andrew Seiler and retired CI Brian Errington.
The case was tried by ADA Jordan Fegley.
