A Garner man has been sentenced to 12 years in federal prison for conspiring to distribute methamphetamine.
Thirty-two-year-old Andrew Frazee was sentenced Sept. 19 after pleading guilty in May to conspiracy to distribute more than a pound of meth.
Prosecutors said Frazee admitted that in November 2024 he and others conspired to distribute methamphetamine in and around Hancock County. On Nov. 19, deputies found Frazee’s vehicle in a ditch in rural Hancock County. Authorities reported finding 325 grams of meth, marijuana, a scale, cash, and other drug paraphernalia in the vehicle. Frazee told investigators he had been buying large quantities of meth and selling it to others.
Frazee was sentenced in the U.S. District Court to 144 months in prison, followed by five years of supervised release. There is no parole in the federal system.
Frazee remains in U.S. Marshal custody until he is transferred to a federal prison.
The case was investigated by the Hancock County Sheriff’s Office and the Iowa Division of Narcotics Enforcement, and prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney’s Office.
