The Lake County Sheriff’s Office Special Investigations Group (SIG), a High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area (HIDTA) funded task force, concluded an investigation that resulted in the arrest of a Wadsworth man for drug trafficking.
SIG began the investigation after developing information that Brandon S. Miller, 35, of the 13000 block of West 29th Street, Wadsworth, was selling narcotics. SIG detectives initiated an undercover operation, and discovered Miller was selling methamphetamine. On one occasion, Miller sold methamphetamine near the playground area of an occupied school.
SIG detectives seized over 140 grams of methamphetamine during their investigation.
Following the investigation, SIG detectives worked with the Lake County State’s Attorney’s Office, which approved the following charges against Miller:
Two counts of Unlawful Delivery of Methamphetamine (Class X felonies)
Two counts of Unlawful Possession of Methamphetamine (one Class X felony, one Class 1 felony)
On February 14, 2025, a Lake County Judge authorized an arrest warrant for Miller. He was taken into custody on February 20, 2025, by authorities in Salem Lakes, Wisconsin. Miller was initially held at the Kenosha County Jail pending extradition to Lake County.
Brandon Miller is 6’0″ 170 LBS.
“Methamphetamine is a highly addictive and dangerous drug that destroys lives and threatens our communities. I commend our Special Investigations Group for their diligent work in holding another drug trafficker accountable. We will continue to aggressively pursue those who bring illegal drugs into our county, especially near schools and places where children gather.”
— Sheriff John D. Idleburg
All defendants are presumed innocent unless proven guilty in a court of law.
