Wambli Meeter, Methamphetamine Possession, South Dakota 2016

South Dakota Man Sentenced for Methamphetamine Possession

A 34-year-old man from Eagle Butte, South Dakota, has been sentenced for his role in a methamphetamine trafficking operation in the state.

Wambli Meeter was sentenced to time served, which had been approximately 12 months in custody and treatment, along with 2 years of supervised release, a $1,000 fine, a $100 special assessment to the Federal Crime Victims Fund, and the forfeiture of $185 in U.S. currency.

Meeter was indicted by a federal grand jury on October 14, 2015, for Possession with Intent to Distribute a Controlled Substance. He pled guilty to the charge on December 15, 2015.

The investigation into Meeter’s activities revealed that between June 2, 2015 and June 10, 2015, he knowingly and intentionally distributed and possessed with the intent to distribute methamphetamine, a Schedule II Controlled Substance, in South Dakota.

On June 2, 2015, in Eagle Butte, Meeter possessed 4.47 grams of methamphetamine in six individual baggies, a syringe fully loaded with a clear liquid that field-tested positive for opiates, and brass knuckles.

On June 10, 2015, in and around the Standing Rock Reservation in South Dakota, Meeter used, purchased, and distributed methamphetamine.

The case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Northern Plains Safe Trails Drug Enforcement Task Force. Assistant U.S. Attorney SaraBeth Donovan prosecuted the case.

Meeter was released after sentencing.
