A man police described as a major drug dealer is headed to prison.
Michael McKeogh was sentenced to 46 years in prison by Judge Jim Kitchens during a Oktibbeha County Circuit Court hearing Friday morning. Kitchens also fined McKeogh a total of $10,000, but suspended $5,000 of that amount.

McKeogh was arrested on the charges against him after an extensive investigation by Starkville Police Department narcotics officers during 2009.
