Omaha Man Sentenced in Methamphetamine Distribution Conspiracy
Michael Allison, a 52-year-old man from Omaha, Nebraska, was sentenced to 168 months in federal prison for his role in a methamphetamine distribution conspiracy.
The sentencing hearing took place on May 26, 2022, in federal court in Omaha, where Senior United States District Judge Joseph F. Bataillon handed down the sentence.
Allison was found guilty of conspiracy to distribute and possess with intent to distribute methamphetamine. There is no parole in the federal system, and after his release from prison, he will begin a 5-year term of supervised release.
The investigation into Allison’s crimes began when Omaha Police Department (OPD) officers acted upon information about his codefendant, Gregory Neemann. On March 13, 2020, OPD officers stopped Neeman’s car in anticipation of serving a search warrant at his residence in Omaha.
When Neeman was stopped, he was in possession of methamphetamine and $2,363 in drug proceeds. A search of his residence yielded additional evidence of his involvement in the conspiracy.
Using information developed during the investigation of Neemann, officers began to focus on Allison. Allison was arrested after delivering 2 pounds of methamphetamine to a cooperating individual. A search of his residence yielded 28 additional ounces of methamphetamine (approximately 793 grams) and $54,327.00. All of the cash seized was forfeited as drug proceeds.
Neeman was sentenced on March 11, 2022, to 180 months in prison. The case was investigated by the Omaha Police Department.
Allison’s sentence serves as a reminder of the consequences of engaging in illicit drug trafficking activities. The Omaha Police Department’s efforts to combat this crime are a testament to their commitment to keeping the community safe.
