I don’t know why this headline makes me giggle, but it does. Who MAILS meth? Well anyway, A woman has been sentenced to 30 months in prison after she, her boyfriend, and others mailed and transported methamphetamine from Phoenix into Wisconsin. Still seems funny, “Phoenix woman sentenced for mailing meth.” LOL. Walter White would be rolling in his grave, if he were real.

Good ‘ole Judge James Peterson sentenced Ms. Krista Sparks, 28 years old, to just under 3 years in federal prison for conspiring to distribute more than 50 grams of methamphetamine and also for money laundering. Sparks was working with her boyfriend Levi Bagne and others to mail and transport methamphetamine. On Nov. 12, 2019 and on Feb. 15, 2020, Sparks mailed packages with meth in them from Arizona to co-defendant Cory Freyermuth’s house in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. Yeah, Oshkosh, home of OshKosh B’gosh, the children’s clothing line (remember the controvesy about the Meth Parody?). Something about that seems wrong to me.

Cops seized the packages, and during a search found agents executed a search warrant on a storage facility in Stevens Point, Wisconsin, used by Bagne and Freyermuth and found ten pounds of methamphetamine. In total, agents have seized approximately 20 pounds of methamphetamine and 14 firearms during the course of the investigation.. WHOOOO! That’s Breaking Bad quantities aye? Sparks also used her and her mother’s bank accounts to launder drug proceeds for her boyfriend. Who involves their mother int heir meth dealings?

So, after selling the meth in Wisconsin, Freyermuth deposited cashier’s checks into Sparks and Bagne’s bank accounts. Sparks set up the accounts and withdrew the money. I guess you could call that money laundering, I they Shoulda’ Called Saul.

In all, six people have pled guilty to participating in the meth distribution crime. Bagne’s sentencing hearing will be on Sept. 13, at 10:30 a.m. Sparks’s charges resulted from an investigation by Central Wisconsin Narcotics Task Force, the Drug Enforcement Administration, Lake Winnebago Area Metropolitan unit, and the Merrill Police Department.

The indictment also seeks the forfeiture of property constituting or derived from proceeds of the conspiracy, including real property located in Buckeye, Arizona; $5,866 in U.S. currency seized on July 23, 2020, in Merrill; $1,180 in U.S. currency seized on April 8, 2021, in Merrill; and $31,220 in U.S. currency seized on April 8, 2021 in Schofield, Wisconsin.  Certainly hope they aren’t coming for Mom’s house! These idiots don’t really think before doing their misdeeds, do they?

“A combined local, state, and federal investigation led to the indictment charging these six individuals with operating an interstate drug trafficking scheme,” Acting U.S. Attorney O’Shea told BuzAz.  “The U.S. Attorney’s Office is committed to working with our law enforcement partners to identify and prosecute those who bring methamphetamine into Wisconsin and distribute it in our communities.”

“By working up the supply chain, the investigators in this case were able to identify individuals allegedly responsible for trafficking large amounts of meth into Wisconsin,” said AG Kaul (from Wisconsin). “Thank you to Lake Winnebago Area Metropolitan Enforcement Group and the many agencies that worked together to make Wisconsin safer by taking down this alleged drug trafficking organization.”

If convicted, each defendant faces a mandatory minimum penalty of 10 years and a maximum of life in federal prison on each charge. The charges against the defendants are the result of an investigation by the Wisconsin Department of Justice Division of Criminal Investigation, Federal Bureau of Investigation, Drug Enforcement Administration, Lake Winnebago Area MEG Unit, Central Wisconsin Narcotics Task Force, Glendale (Arizona) Police Department – Special Investigations Unit, Arizona High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area West Valley Task Force, and the U.S. Postal Inspection Service.
