(KAIR)--An Atchison man, arrested as part of a drug investigation last year, is going to prison.
24-year-old Kyle Wrightsman learned his fate Monday in Atchison County District Court.
According to the Atchison County Attorney's Office, Wrightsman was sentenced on three felony charges, including possession of heroin, felon in possession of a firearm, and aggravated child endangerment.
Together, the charges earned Wrightsman nearly three years behind bars and 12-months of post-release supervision.
Wrightsman and 24-year-old Brittany Elmore were both arrested in October following an investigation of drug activity at their Terrace Hills Apartment.
In December, she was sentenced to 18-months of supervised probation for her role in the case.
Both were arrested outside their shared residence, prior to a raid, by the Atchison County Sheriff's Office on October 19.
Atchison County Sheriff Jack Laurie, following their arrests, said that along with drugs and drug paraphernalia found inside the apartment were syringes underneath a pillow, located less than a foot away from a baby sleeping on the bed where the pillow was located.
