Madeline R. Wagner, a 40-year-old woman from Topeka, Kansas, has been sentenced to 115 months in prison for her role in a methamphetamine and fentanyl trafficking ring. Between July 2024 and November 2024, Wagner and her co-conspirators possessed and intended to distribute 50 grams or more of methamphetamine and 40 grams or more of fentanyl. The Kansas Bureau of Investigation (KBI) led the probe into Wagner’s activities, which ultimately led to her guilty plea and sentencing.
The case against Wagner was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Greg Hough. Wagner’s sentence will be followed by five years of supervised release, ensuring that she will be closely monitored upon her release from prison. The severity of Wagner’s sentence reflects the seriousness of her crimes and the dangers that methamphetamine and fentanyl pose to communities in Kansas and beyond.
The KBI’s investigation into Wagner’s activities is a testament to the agency’s commitment to combating drug trafficking in Kansas. The case also highlights the importance of cooperation between law enforcement agencies and prosecutors in bringing those who engage in such activities to justice.
