Nebraska Woman Sentenced on Drug Charges

U.S. Attorney Brendan V. Johnson announced that a Nebraska woman charged with Conspiracy to Distribute a Controlled Substance and Distribution of a Controlled Substance was sentenced on January 23, 2012, by U.S. District Judge Roberto A. Lange. Tamera Angel His Blue Horse, age 31, was sentenced to 27 months in custody followed by 3 years of supervised release.

His Blue Horse was indicted by a federal grand jury in October of 2010. She pled guilty to the indictment in November 2011. The conviction stems from the sale of methamphetamine on the Rosebud Indian Reservation in 2010.

This case was investigated by the Northern Plains Safe Trails Drug Enforcement Task Force. Assistant U.S. Attorney Ted L. McBride prosecuted the case.

His Blue Horse was immediately turned over to the custody of the U.S. Marshal to begin serving her sentence.
