The U-S Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Iowa reports a Nebraska man was sentenced Thursday to spend 15-years in prison for conspiring to distribute methamphetamine. In addition 58-year old Steven B. Davis, of Omaha, will serve 3 years of supervised release following the term of his imprisonment.

On April 13, 2016, a jury in the Southern District of Iowa found Davis guilty of conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine. The charge against him was the result of an investigation by law enforcement of methamphetamine trafficking that took place between Omaha, Nebraska, and Audubon County, Iowa. The evidence at trial showed that from as early as June of 2014, continuing through August of 2014, Davis conspired with others to distribute over 500 grams of methamphetamine in the Southern District of Iowa.

The investigation was conducted by the Iowa Department of Public Safety, Division of Narcotics Enforcement, and the Drug Enforcement Administration. The case against Davis was prosecuted by the United States Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Iowa.
