(KAIR)--A Lancaster woman will spend nearly 6-years in prison for methamphetamine-related crimes.
According to a release from Leavenworth County Attorney Todd Thompson, 32-year-old Jessica Mottin was sentenced Wednesday in Leavenworth County District Court.
In November, she plead guilty to distribution of methamphetamine. That followed her 2019 arrest stemming from an investigation focused on the sale of meth.
According to Thompson, information was obtained by law enforcement that Mottin was receiving the drug to distribute in Atchison.
Learning that she was obtaining the meth in Wyandotte County, then traveling through Leavenworth County en route to Atchison, Leavenworth County law enforcement followed Mottin’s vehicle to a Leavenworth apartment complex, where she was observed distributing the drug.
A later stop of Mottin’s vehicle by law enforcement led to the discovery of methamphetamine evidence, and Mottin was arrested.
