Doing some research for school.

I'm looking at drug busts. All I can find is when they are caught how many years they are looking at not how many years they actually get...

For example John Nebel...

Well, unless that sentence involves the phrase "without parole" there's a huge disconnect most places between what the sentence is, and what is served. Other than that, look up your local court records. They're public information, but you may actually have to go down to the courtroom in some cases to look at them.

Use Lexis-Nexis as a search engine,it is what law offices use for discovery.

if its state and if he was sentenced to prison,,,just type in ur state dept of corrections offender search in google search,,,find the link and type persons name in,,,
u can search federal rpison system the same way just type in federal prisoner offender search,,,but if no prison term u will have to contact the county in which crime was prosecuted,,,peace

Here's a blog post I wrote a while back about drug sentencing:

Cruel and Unusual Punishment?

I has a link to some federal sentencing statistics.
