District Attorney Robert Manzi says an Indiana County man will spend time in state prison after pleading guilty to a drug charge.
30-year-old Austin Milanos of Indiana was sentenced after pleading guilty to Possession with Intent to Deliver, an ungraded felony. He was ordered to pay fines and costs and serve between three and seven years in a state correctional institution. The charges stem from a July 2025 incident when Milanos was stopped by a member of the Indiana County Sheriff’s Department, who knew there was an active warrant for his arrest. During the stop, deputies say Milanos broke his own cell phone and tried to hide narcotics. Deputies later found multiple packages of drugs, paraphernalia, brass knuckles, and other items associated with drug trafficking.
Manzi says the case highlights the awareness and training of local law enforcement, and that the work of the sheriff’s office and drug task force helped put a drug dealer in state prison and made the community safer.
