Nevada Woman Gets 42 Months in Federal Prison for Iowa Meth Conspiracy

A woman who conspired to distribute methamphetamine was sentenced on February 21, 2024, in federal court in Sioux City, to 42 months’ imprisonment.

Sabrina Bradley, age 50, from Pahrump, Nevada, pled guilty on September 13, 2023, to conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine.

Evidence at the plea and sentencing hearings showed that Bradley was involved in a conspiracy that distributed at least 1.5 kilograms of methamphetamine from November 2021 through December 2021.  Bradley admitted her involvement in assisting other co-conspirators to transport at least four pounds of methamphetamine from sources in Nevada to Iowa for further distribution, including in the Council Bluffs and Cherokee, Iowa areas. 

Sentencing was held before United States District Court Chief Judge Leonard T. Strand.  Bradley was sentenced to 42 months’ imprisonment and must serve a three-year term of supervised release following the imprisonment.  There is no parole in the federal system.  Bradley remains in custody of the United States Marshal until she can be transported to a federal prison.

The case was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Shawn S. Wehde and was investigated by the Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force (OCDETF) program of the United States Department of Justice through a cooperative effort of the Iowa Division of Narcotics Enforcement, United States Postal Inspectors, Homeland Security Investigations, Iowa DCI Laboratory, and Cherokee Police Department.
