Sioux City, Iowa — A Le Mars man has been sentenced to five and a half years in prison on federal drug and weapons charges.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Iowa says 49-year-old Timothy Mullally pleaded guilty on May 16th of this year to one count of conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine and one count of prohibited person in possession of firearms.
Evidence presented at court proceedings showed that between January 2022 through September 2022 Mullally and others distributed more than two kilograms of methamphetamine. Evidence showed that on two occasions in August and September of 2022, Mullally distributed more than 800 grams of pure methamphetamine to an individual cooperating with law enforcement. As part of their investigation, authorities in September of 2022 intercepted a three-pound package of meth that was to be delivered to Mullally’s home. Multiple search warrants were executed on properties and vehicles he owned, resulting in officers seizing $5,830 in cash and two firearms.
Mullally was sentenced to 66 months’ in federal prison, a $1,000 fine, and he must serve a three-year term of supervised release following imprisonment. There is no parole in the federal system.
