A Cape Girardeau man pleaded guilty Monday to federal charges of possessing four ounces of methamphetamine. Bradley H. Reddick, 24, entered the plea before U.S. District Judge Jean Hamilton. Sentencing was set for Nov. 14; Reddick faces a maximum of life imprisonment and a fine of up to $4 million. On April 15, Reddick was arrested at truck stop in Cape Girardeau County by agents of the Southeast Missouri Drug Task force and the Drug Enforcement Administration. Reddick admitted that he had been trafficking methamphetamine since February, U.S. Attorney Catherine Hanaway said in a news release. Reddick was one of three men charged with distributing methamphetamine by bringing the drug to the area from Kansas City. Along with Reddick, Michael Brown and Mark Reddick, both of Jackson, were charged in June.
