United States Attorney Susan Lehr announced that Angela Marie Bryant, age 46, of Lincoln, Nebraska, was sentenced on January 10, 2025, in federal court in Lincoln for possession with intent to distribute 50 grams or more of methamphetamine. United States District Judge Susan M. Bazis sentenced Bryant to 37 months’ imprisonment.  There is no parole in the federal system.

This case was investigated by the Lincoln/Lancaster County Drug Task Force.
