A Great Falls man who was dealing fentanyl from a motel room was sentenced Monday to five years and four months in prison, followed by four years of supervised release, Acting U.S. Attorney Mark Steger Smith said.
Brayden Lucas Sangrey, 20, pleaded guilty in May 2026 to possession with intent to distribute fentanyl. Chief U.S. District Judge Brian M. Morris presided.
The government alleged in court documents that Sangrey was arrested in a Great Falls motel room on two outstanding state warrants by the U.S. Marshal’s Violent Offender Task Force. During the arrest, law enforcement found $2,500 in cash, a small box with 65 grams of fentanyl, and drug paraphernalia. The U.S. Attorney’s Office prosecuted the case. The Great Falls Police Department and the U.S. Marshals Service conducted the investigation.
