Co-defendants Ty-Sean Nunn, George Buck, Willis Parker, Anthony Hill-Gaines, and Jerrell Jackson have all pled guilty to charges related to the conspiracy.  They are all pending sentencing.  Only co-defendant Terrance Traynham is pending trial.  Traynham was previously sentenced to 106 months in federal prison for conduct related to this conspiracy.

This case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Omaha Police Department, and the Bellevue Police Department.
