A 65-year-old Red Bluff man has been given a suspended sentence after a large drug bust. In March a search at the home of Thomas Joseph Cadotte turned up Four Pounds of Methamphetamine along with evidence of sales. The drugs were stored in a place that was accessible to a 2-year-old child who lived in the home. Cadotte has pled guilty to possession of drugs for sale, maintaining a place when drugs are sold and child abuse. He’s been sentenced to 270 days in Tehama County Jail and a nearly-5-year prison sentence that’s suspended on condition of 4 years probation and completion of a drug treatment program.
