HILLSBORO (March 21, 2012)-A Hillsboro man was sentenced to federal prison Wednesday in U.S. District Court in Waco after he earlier pleaded guilty to possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine.

Bruce Abel Martinez was sentenced to one year and one day in prison, to be followed by three years supervised released, ordered to pay a $1,000 fine and $100 in special assessment to the court.

On September 3, 2011, Hill County Sheriff's deputies served a search warrant on a home in Hillsboro where they found methamphetamine and other items that could be used in the sale of drugs.

Officers also found other items that they believe were stolen.
