A Vancouver drug dealer who was caught with a half-pound of methamphetamine in his home will spend 20 months in prison.

James H. Fisher, 54, pleaded guilty in September to possession of methamphetamine with the intent to deliver and was sentenced Friday. During a March 2015 search of his Mountain View neighborhood home, police discovered the methamphetamine, several scales and more than $12,000 in cash, according to court records.

Both Fisher and his wife, Christy M. Fisher, were charged. She pleaded guilty in September to possession of methamphetamine and was sentenced to one day in jail, time she’d already served.

James Fisher’s sentencing had been delayed so he could address health problems.
