Alexander Jackson, Distributing Methamphetamine, Nebraska 2025

An Omaha man has been sentenced to 15 years in prison for his role in distributing methamphetamine and possessing a firearm in Omaha, Nebraska.

Alexander Jackson, 54, was sentenced on December 17, 2025, in federal court in Omaha for distribution of methamphetamine and being a felon in possession of a firearm.

United States District Judge Brian C. Buescher sentenced Jackson to 180 months' imprisonment. There is no parole in the federal system.

After Jackson's release from prison, he will begin an eight-year term of supervised release.

The investigation began in April 2024, when an individual cooperating with law enforcement made two controlled buys from Jackson in Omaha.

The first controlled buy was for one ounce of methamphetamine, while the second buy was for another ounce of methamphetamine and a 9mm handgun.

Between 1991 and 2014, Jackson was convicted four times for drug dealing offenses in Douglas County District Court.

Because of the 2014 prior conviction, Jackson faced an enhancement mandatory minimum of 10 years' imprisonment and eight years of supervised release for this federal offense.

This case was investigated by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives.
