Third Revocation of Supervised Release Lands Fort Dodge, Iowa Man Back in Federal Prison for Fourth Time

A man who violated the terms of his federal supervised release for the third time was sentenced to 30 months’ imprisonment.

Matthew Brockway, 44, from Fort Dodge, Iowa, received the prison term after admitting to multiple violations of his supervised release, including several failures to report/submit to urinalysis, numerous uses of controlled substances, and failures to report as directed by U.S. Probation.  Brockway initially was sentenced to 180 months’ imprisonment in 2010 for drug trafficking offenses and was first released to supervision on February 24, 2021.  Less than a year later, on January 27, 2022, Brockway’s supervised release was revoked for various supervised release violations, including new state law violations and he was sentenced to federal prison for 24 months.  After being released a second time on November 25, 2022, mere months later, on January 9, 2023, Brockway was revoked again for various supervised release violations, including using drugs and sentenced to 11 months’ imprisonment.  On November 17, 2023, Brockway was released on his third supervision and has now been ordered to serve 30 months in federal prison.

Brockway was sentenced in Sioux City by United States District Court Chief Judge Leonard T. Strand.  Brockway is being held in the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service until he can be transported to a federal prison.

The case was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Shawn S. Wehde and investigated by the United States Probation Office.
