Crime Spree in the Rockies: A Three-Year Investigation Pays Off
The United States Attorney’s Office for the District of Wyoming has successfully prosecuted a three-year investigation into a cocaine distribution conspiracy in Teton County, Wyoming, and Teton County, Idaho. The case involved a large-scale operation that saw five individuals brought to justice.
The investigation, which was conducted by the Wyoming Division of Criminal Investigation, Drug Enforcement Agency, United States Postal Inspection Service, Teton County Sheriff’s Office in Idaho, and the Idaho State Police, resulted in the sentencing of the fifth and final defendant in the case.
