Hammond, IN – A local woman has been sentenced for her role in a heroin trafficking operation. Tambra Ducker, 26, of Indianapolis, Indiana, was sentenced to three years of probation after pleading guilty to possession with intent to distribute heroin.
According to court documents, Ducker was one of the passengers in a vehicle stopped by the Jasper County Sheriff’s Department on February 25, 2013. During the search of her purse, officers found 150 grams of heroin, which she admitted belonged to her.
This case was the result of an investigation by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). Assistant United States Attorney Jennifer Chang prosecuted the case.
Ducker’s sentencing comes as a result of a joint effort between local law enforcement and federal agencies to combat the growing heroin epidemic in the region.
Heroin addiction and trafficking have become a significant concern in the United States, with many communities struggling to cope with the effects of this deadly substance.
