A Detroit man who was convicted of murder aged 11 has been charged with selling heroin and methamphetamine.

Nathaniel Abraham, now 33, was caught selling methamphetamine and heroin by undercover officers a number of times, according to police.

Officers subsequently searched two homes in Pontiac in connection with the case.

At one house, on the 200 block of Warwick Street, officers apparently found 4.9 grams of meth, $3,086 and digital scales, Detroit Free Press reported.

Bond was set at $100,000 during a court appearance Friday in Farmington Hills.

He is expected to be arraigned Saturday in Pontiac on five counts of delivery and manufacture of methamphetamine, a 20-year felony, and on one count of maintaining a drug house, which carries a two-year penalty.

Abraham, who has a girlfriend and four-month-old son, was ordered to live at his mother's home in Pontiac and wear a GPS tether because of two other cases involving indecent exposure and resisting arrest.

Outside court attorney James Galen claimed that his client isn't 'holding up so well'.

He told WDIV-TV: 'It looks like if we're not careful, he's going to be warehoused in another fine (Michigan Department of Corrections) correctional facility.

The station reported that a judge told Abraham to leave town as he has had numerous brushes with the law.

However Galen said that Another judge ordered him to stay at his mother's home.

'If he had his way, he'd leave the state of Michigan with his new girlfriend and four-month-old son and never look back.

'I'd buy him a plane ticket, a train ticket if I could, but the truth is he's stuck now because he's got pending cases.'

Abraham made headlines in 1997 when he shot 18-year-old Ronnie Greene outside a party store in Pontiac.

Police said the killing appeared to be random, Detroit Free Press previously reported.

Abraham was convicted as an adult of second-degree murder but sentenced as a juvenile

After spending time in various juvenile facilities, he was eventually released from custody on his 21st birthday in 2007.

However he later returned to jail on charges that had attempted to sell ecstasy.

Abraham was also sentenced to probation for assaulting a prison guard in 2010 during his time in jail for attempting to sell drugs.

Michigan Department of Corrections records show that he wad discharged from parole in June 2018 about a year after he was released.

However he got into trouble once again when he showed his genitals to a woman after telling her he would mow her lawn in August 2018.

He was charged with indecent exposure over this incident but failed to show up for a court appearance.

At this time he punched deputies who tried to arrest him. He was then tasered and taken into custody.

EDITOR’S NOTE: If he goes to prison for selling dope he will be classified as a non-violent criminal and serve as an example of one of the disproportionate number of incarcerated blacks. He’ll probably cop a plea to possession and could even be placed on probation.
