Methamphetamine Distribution Ring Busted in Wyoming
Four individuals involved in a methamphetamine distribution ring have been sentenced in the United States District Court for the District of Wyoming. The defendants, who used the United States Postal Service to ship drugs to Wyoming, were convicted of conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine.
The investigation, led by the United States Postal Inspection Service (USPIS) and the Wyoming Division of Criminal Investigation (DCI), began in April 2020 when DCI notified USPIS that its agents believed individuals in Wyoming were using the postal service to mail methamphetamine. Acting on this information, USPIS recovered a package containing approximately 424 grams of methamphetamine. Investigators determined that Angel De Jesus Duarte-Toledo was mailing methamphetamine from Arizona to Wyoming for further distribution.
After co-conspirators in Wyoming received the packages, the methamphetamine was distributed throughout the Gillette and Glenrock communities. The United States Attorney’s Office for the District of Wyoming prosecuted the four individuals involved in the scheme, including Duarte-Toledo, who was sentenced to 121 months imprisonment; Louiz Serbando Pena-Hermosillio, sentenced to 145 months imprisonment; Ashley Nichole Bullock, sentenced to 77 months imprisonment; and Sheila Ann Rohovie, sentenced to 120 months imprisonment.
‘As this case demonstrates, bolden methamphetamine traffickers are using every possible method to sell this poisonous drug to the people of Wyoming,’ said Acting United States Attorney Bob Murray. ‘In order to stop this dangerous and illegal trade, we will closely coordinate with all of our law enforcement partners to identify, arrest, prosecute, and incarcerate those responsible.’
The defendants were investigated by the United States Postal Inspection Service and the Wyoming Division of Criminal Investigation. The case was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Jonathan Coppom.
The following individuals were involved in the scheme:
- ANGEL DE JESUS DUARTE-TOLEDO, 34, of Yuma, Arizona
- LOUIZ SERBANDO PENA-HERMOSILLO, 35, of Casper, Wyoming
- ASHLEY NICHOLE BULLOCK, 35, of Gillette, Wyoming
- SHEILA ANN ROHOVIE, 33, of Dubois, Wyoming
They were convicted of conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine.
