MADISON, Wis – A drug dealer with a Minnesota record was sentenced to 12-1/2 years by a federal judge. Adam Beliveau, 42, had been arrested at a convenience store parking lot north of Menomonie in November 2020. He had 1,160 grams of meth in his vehicle. Beliveau also was carrying $30,000 cash. On the same day police searched Beliveau’s home and found large amounts of heroin, fentanyl, marijuana, firearms and hundreds of rounds of ammunition. Warrants for Beliveau’s arrest had followed a complaint to authorities from his girlfriend’s parents, with whom he lived, about a package shipped to their home from California with four pounds of meth inside. Beliveau pleaded guilty in federal court in April. In sentencing him, U.S. Judge William Conley noted that Beliveau was under supervision already for a drug trafficking in Minnesota.

Beliveau. Big-time drug dealer. Brazen too.
