An Ohio man is facing nearly three decades in federal prison after a massive law enforcement sweep cut off a major methamphetamine supply chain that ran through Summit County. U.S. District Judge John R. Adams sentenced Antonio Guice, 42, to 327 months—just over 27 years—after he pleaded guilty late last year.
The sentencing is a significant step forward in the ATF’s two-month crackdown on the city’s most violent districts. Guice was apprehended with 30 other people during the endeavor, which involved a task team of local and federal agencies.
According to court records, by August 2025, detectives had identified Guice as the principal source of high-volume narcotics trafficking in the Akron metro area.
Federal officials eventually traced him back to the sale of around 470 grams of methamphetamine.
Guice isn’t the only one facing directly in this scheme. His co-defendant, 54-year-old Troy Miller, is already serving a 10-year jail sentence after making his own guilty plea.
Another colleague, 40-year-old Wathen Milliner, has pled guilty and is currently awaiting a decision from the bench.
The investigation was a large collaborative effort involving the Akron Police Department, the Summit and Portage County Sheriff’s Offices, and several other local departments, including Barberton and the University of Akron.
After serving his 27-year sentence, Guice will be subject to an extra five years of supervised release.
