A Santa Rosa drug dealer is getting 16 years, 4 months in prison. 39-year-old Edgar Ortega Aguilar received his sentence on Monday after pleading no contest in August to felony charges of possessing a controlled substance with the intent to sell. Police arrested Aguilar in February after finding 65 pounds of methamphetamine packaged in 18 gallon-sized zipper bags in his northwest Santa Rosa home. In a second home in which Aguilar rented a room, they found $23,000 in cash, more meth and scales and packaging materials.
