Omaha Woman Sentenced for Conspiracy to Distribute Methamphetamine

For Immediate Release
U.S. Attorney's Office, District of Nebraska

United States Attorney Joe Kelly announced that Angela Vandervoort, 42, was sentenced today to 87 months in prison by United States District Judge Robert F. Rossiter, Jr. for conspiracy to distribute and possess with intent to distribute 50 grams or more of methamphetamine. In addition to her prison term, Vandervoort will serve five years of supervised release following her release from prison.  She will also forfeit $3,969 in U.S. currency.

Law enforcement received a tip that Angela Vandervoort and Jason Sprinkel (co-defendants) were selling methamphetamine out of their residence in Omaha, Nebraska.  Law enforcement obtained a search warrant for the residence. On January 18, 2018, officers saw Vandervoort and Sprinkel leave their residence and proceed to a gas station.  Officers detained Vandervoort and Sprinkel while other officers simultaneously executed the search warrant on their residence.

As a result of the search, approximately 93 grams of actual methamphetamine was found inside the residence. Inside of the vehicle, officers located an additional 155 grams for a total of 248 grams of actual methamphetamine and $3,969 in United States currency. Vandervoort admitted to agreeing to sell, and having sold methamphetamine with Sprinkel, for approximately a three-month period prior to her arrest. 

In November, 2018, Sprinkel was sentenced to a term of 87 months’ imprisonment and 5 years of supervised release following his release from prison.

This case was investigated by the Omaha Police Department.
