An Elkhart County man has been sentenced to 21 years for dealing cocaine. 

The Goshen News reports Thaddius Sleepers sold cocaine to an undercover officer in June 2021, but wasn’t arrested until 2024 on a bench warrant.

Sleepers told the court he’s changed since becoming a father and now works a regular job.

Seven years of his sentence are suspended to probation, while another seven may be served in community corrections.
