Carinda M. Blair, a 39-year-old resident of Omaha, Nebraska, has been sentenced for her role in a methamphetamine distribution conspiracy. The sentencing took place on June 11, 2025, in federal court in Omaha. Chief United States District Court Judge Robert F. Rossiter, Jr. handed down a sentence of 78 months’ imprisonment to Blair. Following her prison term, she will serve two years under supervised release.

Blair’s charges stemmed from her involvement with a Mexico-based source of supply (SOS) for methamphetamine. She acted as a local courier distributing the SOS’s methamphetamine across Nebraska and Iowa.

The investigation revealed that on August 17, 2023, surveillance by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and Drug Enforcement Administration observed a suspected drug courier visiting Blair’s apartment in Omaha to conduct a drug transaction. A subsequent search warrant executed on the Mexico SOS’s phone number confirmed that Blair had arranged this deal with the SOS. Evidence showed that since March 2023, Blair had been regularly purchasing ounces of methamphetamine from the SOS on a weekly basis.

The case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Drug Enforcement Administration, and the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office.
