Tobias Anthony Smith, 42, of Riverton, Wyoming, was sentenced to 70 months’ imprisonment for possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine.

According to court documents, in June of 2023, the Wyoming Division of Criminal Investigation (DCI) learned that Smith was selling methamphetamine. Agents then completed a controlled purchase of methamphetamine from Smith. On Aug. 24, 2023, law enforcement served a search warrant on Smith’s Riverton residence. When interviewed, Smith told agents they would find methamphetamine in the house. Agents searched the property and found 386 grams of methamphetamine along with a scale and packaging material consistent with drug distribution.

Smith was indicted in Sept. 2023 and pleaded guilty on Dec 1, 2023. Chief U.S. District Court Judge Scott W. Skavdahl imposed the sentence on Mar. 8.

This case was investigated by DCI and the FBI. It was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Michael J. Elmore.
