An Ellsworth man pleaded guilty in federal court Tuesday to conspiring to distribute methamphetamine received through the mail as well as money laundering.

Court records show 38-year-old Jeremy Kane and others sent money that included drug proceeds to a source in California.

They say it was done via Walmart money transfers, Cash App, and Venmo to hide the involvement of another person involved.

Records say drugs would be mailed to various addresses in Maine through the postal service to be trafficked in Maine.

Kane faces up to 40 years in prison and up to $1.5 million in fines when he’s sentenced on both charges.
