Lincoln Woman Sentenced in Crack Cocaine Conspiracy

A 51-year-old Lincoln woman has been sentenced to 21 years and 10 months in prison for her role in a crack cocaine conspiracy in the Lincoln area.

Teresa Liggins was convicted of conspiracy to distribute over 280 grams of crack cocaine, a charge she pleaded guilty to on December 21, 2012.

Liggins was involved in distributing small quantities of crack cocaine in the Lincoln area, according to the evidence presented in court. She was previously sentenced and is currently serving a sentence of 3 to 6 years for attempted delivery of a controlled substance from the Lancaster County District Court.

As part of her federal sentence, Judge John M. Gerrard ordered that Liggins’ time be served concurrently with her state sentence. Liggins was charged with conspiring with Diwancha Brown, who has also pleaded guilty and is awaiting sentencing.

The case was investigated by the Lincoln/Lancaster County Drug Task Force. Liggins’ sentencing brings an end to a lengthy investigation into the distribution of crack cocaine in the Lincoln area.

Liggins’ exact sentence, 21 years and 10 months, will be served concurrently with her state sentence. The exact dates of her previous conviction and sentencing are not specified in the source material.
