KANSAS CITY, KAN. - A man from Houston was sentenced today to four years in federal prison for driving a load of methamphetamine to Kansas, U.S. Attorney Stephen McAllister said.
Osiel Armando Siquerios, 28, El Paso, Texas, pleaded guilty to one count of possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine. In his plea, he admitted police in Lawrence, Kan., stopped his car Feb. 26, 2017, on the Kansas Turnpike in Douglas County. Officers found approximately 12 pounds of methamphetamine in a compartment hidden beneath the back seat of the car. Siqueiros was taking the drugs to Kansas City.
McAllister commended the Lawrence Police Department, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and Assistant U.S. Attorney Terra Morehead for their work on the case.
