Judge Samantha Wagner also ordered him to serve 30 years of extended supervision.
Currie was one of seven people charged last summer, and he faced the most counts.
Five search warrants were executed in Brown County, and a simultaneous search of a stash house in Chicago found 12 kilograms (26 pounds) of fentanyl, four kilograms (nine pounds) of cocaine, 748 grams (1.6 pounds) of meth, 460 grams (one pound) of heroin, 16 firearms, and marijuana.
Prosecutors have since stated that this was Wisconsin’s first wiretap investigation into fentanyl, and at least 47 people are facing charges.
