Nebraska City Woman Sentenced for Possession with Intent to Distribute Methamphetamine

United States Attorney Steven Russell announced that Amy Henner, 45, of Nebraska City, Nebraska, was sentenced on May 23, 2023, by Senior United States District Court Judge John M. Gerrard to a term of 66 months’ imprisonment following her conviction for possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine. After she completes her prison sentence, Henner will also serve three years on supervised release. There is no parole in the federal system.

On March 18, 2021, Henner was approached by police investigators in Lincoln.  Investigators found that she had about a half-pound of methamphetamine in her purse. The methamphetamine was sent to the Nebraska State Patrol Crime Lab where a forensic scientist confirmed the presence of at least 190 grams of pure methamphetamine. Henner admitted to investigators that she had been selling methamphetamine to others.

This case was investigated by the Nebraska State Patrol and the Lincoln/Lancaster County Narcotics Task Force which is made up of officers from the Nebraska State Patrol, Lincoln Police Department, and the Lancaster County Sheriff’s Office.
