Omaha Woman Sentenced to 11 Years’ Imprisonment for Conspiracy to Distribute Methamphetamine

Acting United States Attorney Jan Sharp announced Rachel McCluskey, age 46, of Omaha, Nebraska, was sentenced today in federal court in Omaha, for Conspiracy to Possess with Intent to Distribute Methamphetamine. Chief United States District Court Judge Robert F. Rossiter, Jr. sentenced McCluskey to 11 years’ imprisonment. After completing her term of imprisonment, McCluskey will be required to serve a 4-year term of supervised release as there is no parole in the federal system.

On July 16, 2020, Omaha Police Investigators received information that McCluskey was actively involved in distributing methamphetamine out of her Omaha apartment. That same day officers obtained and executed a search warrant on her apartment and found 173 grams of actual methamphetamine, a digital scale, drug packaging, phones, and $5,010 in United States currency.

A search of her phones revealed messages from her methamphetamine source confirming her involvement in a conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine.           

This case was investigated by the Omaha Police Department.
