Omaha Woman Sentenced for Distributing Methamphetamine

United States Attorney Susan Lehr announced that Shelby English, 42, of Omaha, Nebraska, was sentenced July 17, 2024, in federal court in Omaha for distributing methamphetamine. United States District Judge Brian C. Buescher sentenced English to 130 months’ imprisonment. There is no parole in the federal system. After English’s release from prison, she will begin a 5-year term of supervised release.

On May 24, 2023, a confidential source coordinated a controlled purchase of 111 grams of meth from English.  To make the purchase, the confidential source drove to the residence at 45th block of N. 41st Street, Omaha, and entered the residence with English. Inside the residence, the confidential source and English encountered a Hispanic female later identified as codefendant, Alondra Rebolledo, who is alleged to have provided the meth to English, who then gave it to the confidential source.  Forensic laboratory testing confirmed the substance as meth with a purity level of 94.2%.

Rebelledo is presumed innocent and is scheduled for trial on August 20, 2024.

This case was investigated by the Omaha Police Department.
