Wilson County, TN – Authorities are asking for the public’s help locating a man wanted on multiple felony and misdemeanor charges, including alleged methamphetamine-related offenses, according to the Wilson County Sheriff’s Office.
According to the sheriff’s office, William Gene Stanek, born June 1, 1978, is featured in this week’s Wanted Wednesday alert after failing to appear in court on several cases. Deputies say multiple warrants are currently active for Stanek in Wilson County.
Court records provided by authorities show Stanek is allegedly wanted on charges that include failure to appear and bond jumping tied to theft cases involving amounts up to $1,000, along with numerous drug-related offenses. These include alleged manufacture, delivery, sale, and possession with intent involving methamphetamine and other Schedule I, II, and VI controlled substances.
According to investigators, some of the alleged methamphetamine-related charges involve quantities exceeding 26 grams, while other warrants stem from possession with intent involving smaller amounts. Additional charges reportedly include simple possession, casual exchange, and possession of unlawful drug paraphernalia.
The sheriff’s office also lists separate failure-to-appear warrants connected to methamphetamine possession and drug paraphernalia cases, further compounding the number of outstanding court obligations.
Officials emphasized that Stanek should be considered wanted, and members of the public are urged not to approach him if spotted. Instead, deputies ask anyone with information about his whereabouts to contact the Wilson County Sheriff’s Office.
Tips can be submitted by calling 615-444-1412, extension 3, and authorities say tips may remain anonymous. No further details about Stanek’s last known location were released as of Wednesday.
