A Norfolk, Nebraska man has been sentenced to 114 months’ imprisonment for possessing nearly five pounds of methamphetamine during a traffic stop.
According to court records, Torey Benson, 41, was sentenced in federal court in Omaha on January 20, 2023, for Possession with Intent to Distribute Methamphetamine.
Chief United States District Judge Robert F. Rossiter, Jr. handed down the sentence, which also includes four years of supervised release upon Benson’s release from prison.
There is no parole in the federal system.
The charges stem from a traffic stop conducted by law enforcement in Butler County, Nebraska on November 27, 2021.
During the traffic stop, officers searched Benson’s vehicle and person and found just under five pounds of methamphetamine, five tabs of LSD, and three grams of marijuana.
Officers also found drug packaging materials.
Benson admitted to receiving the methamphetamine and that he intended to sell it to others.
This case was investigated by the Butler County Sheriff’s Office and the Nebraska State Patrol.
