Twin Cities Radio: Jeff Dubay Escapes More Jail Time

Jeff  Dubay

Former Twin Cities sports radio personality Jeff Dubay has been sentenced for methamphetamine possession.

Dubay, 48, was sentenced Friday in Washington County District Court to 10 years probation and 180 days in jail, along with requirements to complete treatment and meet other conditions. It was Dubay’s second felony drug conviction.

He was arrested for a driving violation and for an outstanding warrant out of Wright County. During the arrest, police searched Dubay’s pockets and reported finding two hypodermic needles and a piece of folded paper containing methamphetamine. A computer bag in his vehicle contained approximately 31 used syringes; one contained a liquid that police believed to be a drug, the criminal complaint states.

Dubay was convicted of drug possession in 2009, which triggered a mandatory 180-day jail term in the new case. He received credit for 53 days already served. He will be allowed to participate in an in-custody Sentence to Service program to reduce remaining jail time, according to the sentencing summary.

Dubay was a popular host on KFAN radio and later 1500 ESPN. His employment at 1500 ESPN was terminated in 2014.
