Washington County, WI – A man charged last week in connection with a deadly drug-related incident has turned himself in to authorities, according to the Washington County Sheriff’s Office. Officials said the surrender happened Monday morning, marking the latest development in a case tied to a man’s death earlier this year in the Town of Farmington.
According to the Sheriff’s Office, formal charges were filed last Thursday against Ryan Immel for his alleged involvement in a drug transaction that took place in the City of Milwaukee. Investigators say the incident allegedly resulted in the death of a Farmington man earlier in the year. Authorities did not release additional details regarding the substance involved or the circumstances leading up to the man’s death, but described the case as a reckless homicide investigation.
The Sheriff’s Office said Immel appeared in court shortly after turning himself in, where a judge set his cash bail at $150,000. According to officials, he remains in custody at the Washington County Jail as of Monday. Additional court dates had not yet been publicly announced by authorities at the time of the release.
The case spans multiple jurisdictions — Milwaukee, Farmington, and Washington County — and remains under active investigation. Law enforcement agencies have not reported whether additional arrests or charges are expected.
Residents with information related to the investigation are encouraged to contact local authorities.
