    Federal court sentences 2 for marijuana conspiracy in Omaha – Medical Marijuana Program Connection

    [ad_1]

    OMAHA, Neb. (WOWT) – Below is a roundup of sentences handed down last week in federal court in Omaha, according to updates from acting U.S. Attorney Steven Russell.

    The acting U.S. Attorney’s office in Omaha reminds the public that there is no parole in the federal system.

    Kristen M. Patterson, 40, of Omaha, was sentenced on May 3 by Judge Brian C. Buescher to 6 years in prison for unlawfully possessing a firearm as a felon. In April 2021, Omaha Police allegedly saw Patterson’s truck and trailer blocking an entrance to a storage facility. Police ran the plates and allegedly discovered the trailer was stolen. Police then used loudspeakers, patrol lights, a spotlight and sirens to attempt to call Patterson out of the truck for roughly 20 minutes and Patterson allegedly did not comply. Police then made contact and allegedly found a knife and a gun within hands reach. Patterson was a felon at the time and was not allowed to have guns. Patterson testified at trial that she didn’t know the gun was in the truck and a jury found her guilty.

    Marques Eiland, 28, and Aarion Jenkins, 29, both of Omaha, were sentenced on May 3 by Judge Brian C. Buescher for conspiring to distribute marijuana.

  • Authorities conduct search, tow away car from missing Omaha woman’s home

    Authorities conduct search, tow away car from missing Omaha woman’s home

    OMAHA, Neb. (WOWT) – UPDATE: Douglas County sheriff’s office confirms they are searching the landfill potentially connected to Cari Allen’s case.

    —————-

    Douglas County Sheriff’s deputies were at the home of a missing Omaha woman on Wednesday morning, wrapping up their search just before noon.

    It’s Day 4 of the search for 43-year-old Cari Allen.

    “We are constantly searching based on tips that we receive,” Douglas County Sheriff’s Chief Deputy Wayne Hudson told 6 News.

    6 News saw a K-9 unit search Stolley Prairie near 168th Street between Blondo Street and West Dodge Road.

    Douglas County Sheriff’s deputies conducted a search Wednesday morning, Nov. 23, 2022, near the home of a missing Omaha woman.

    Stolley Prairie is 24 acres — a lot of ground to cover. The 43-year-old missing woman lives nearby, in a neighborhood near 168th and Blondo streets. She was last seen in that area late Saturday night.

    After an hour of following the tree lines, there was no sign of her, so investigators said they were off to the next search area. 6 News spotted more investigators on the other side of 168th Street, under West Dodge Road — a known dumping ground that’s well hidden.

    “I think they should search here because that is a place that’s isolated and alone,” said jeri Whitmarsh of Omaha. “You don’t know if she came down here or someone brought her here — that would be sad.”

    Meanwhile, back at Allen’s home, lab techs removed envelopes of possible evidence. A tow truck driver also collected the dark sedan in the garage for closer inspection back at headquarters.

    Investigators have said very little about Allen’s disappearance, other than she was last seen around 11 p.m. Saturday by her home.

    On Monday night and into Tuesday morning, Douglas County investigators, with the help of the Topeka Police Department, executed a search on a home in Kansas. Nebraska investigators told 6 News it was connected to the Allen case.

    A K-9 unit was also involved in that search.

    No one came to the door in Topeka when police there asked. The home belongs to a man by the name of Aldrick Scott.

    The connection to the two locations was seemingly made after an odd 9-1-1 call Monday night that came from a third party in Texas, according to WIBW, our sister station in Topeka. Dispatch mentioned a code that means dead body.

    Investigators carried evidence from the Kansas home, but there was no sign of Scott — or Allen, so the mystery remains separated by 150 miles for now.
