Omaha Man Sentenced for Possessing with Intent to Distribute Methamphetamine

Acting United States Attorney Matthew R. Molsen announced that Javier Guzman-Andrade, 41, of Omaha, Nebraska, was sentenced on March 26, 2025, in federal court in Omaha for possession with intent to distribute 50 grams or more of actual methamphetamine. United States District Judge Brian C. Buescher sentenced Guzman-Andrade to 168 months’ imprisonment. There is no parole in the federal system. After Guzman-Andrade is released from prison, he will begin a 5-year term of supervised release. He will also forfeit to the United States $10,635.00 in United States currency that was drug proceeds.

In 2023, officers with the Drug Enforcement Administration and Omaha Police Department identified a multiple pound quantity methamphetamine distributor named Javier Guzman-Andrade.  On November 27, 2023, law enforcement executed a state court-authorized search warrant at the residence of Guzman-Andrade. As a result, approximately eight pounds of methamphetamine were seized. In addition, a single shot Deringer firearm was located in a different room from where the drugs were found.  A forensic laboratory analysis confirmed 2,964 grams of actual methamphetamine.

This case was investigated by the Drug Enforcement Administration and Omaha Police Department. This effort is part of an Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Forces (OCDETF) operation.
