COLUMBUS, Ohio – A jury has convicted Glenn Marcell Madison, Jr., 29, of Columbus, on all counts following a two-day trial before U.S. District Judge James L. Graham.

Benjamin C. Glassman, United States Attorney for the Southern District of Ohio, Franklin County Sheriff Dallas Baldwin and Columbus Interim Chief of Police Thomas A. Quinlan announced the verdict returned yesterday evening.

Madison, also known as “Monster,” was indicted in October 2018 and May 2019 and charged with six drug-related crimes.

He was convicted of two counts of distributing cocaine, one count of distributing heroin and one count of distributing methamphetamine; each are crimes punishable by up to 20 years in prison. Madison was also convicted of two counts of distributing 50 grams or more of methamphetamine, which carries a potential sentence of five to 40 years in prison.

U.S. Attorney Glassman commended the cooperative investigation by the Columbus Division of Police and Franklin County Sheriff’s Office, as well as Assistant United States Attorneys Kevin W. Kelley and Noah R. Litton, who are representing the United States in this case.
