Acting United States Attorney Nicholas Vassallo announced today that PHILLIP AARON DOBBINS, 44, of Cody, Wyoming was sentenced for possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine.

This crime was investigated by the Wyoming Division of Criminal Investigation, the Cody Police Department, the United States Postal Inspection Service, and the United States Marshals Service. Assistant United States Attorney Timothy J. Forwood prosecuted the case.
