Orlando, Florida – U.S. District Judge Carlos E. Mendoza has sentenced Gerit William Naber (39, Palm Bay) to 11 years and 8 months in federal prison for distributing methamphetamine. Naber entered a guilty plea on June 24, 2024.
According to the plea agreement, the Drug Enforcement Administration and the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office used a confidential source to conduct two controlled purchases of multiple ounces of methamphetamine from Naber. After a third controlled purchase failed when the confidential source refused to use the drugs with Naber, a search warrant was executed at Naber’s home, resulting in the seizure of over 100 grams of methamphetamine. In total, Naber was responsible for over 320 grams of pure methamphetamine.
This case was investigated by the Drug Enforcement Administration and the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office. It was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Megan Testerman.
