Omaha Man Sentenced to Four Years for Methamphetamine Distribution

United States Attorney Steven Russell announced that Christopher Hatcher, 45, of Omaha, Nebraska, was sentenced today in federal court in Omaha for distribution of methamphetamine.  Chief United States District Judge Robert F. Rossiter, Jr. sentenced Hatcher to 48 months’ imprisonment.  There is no parole in the federal system.  After his release from prison, he will begin a four-year term of supervised release.

On April 14, 2020, Hatcher sold methamphetamine to a cooperating witness working with law enforcement at an Omaha apartment. The substance was submitted to the crime laboratory for testing, which determined a net weight of 141.7 grams and a purity of 95 percent.

This case was investigated by the Omaha Police Department and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms.
