Richard G. Frohling, Acting United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Wisconsin, announced that on October 14, 2025, Dianna L. Chevalier (age: 41), formerly of Keshena, received a 60-month sentence for a drug related crime on the Menominee Indian Reservation. The sentence, imposed by Senior United States District Judge William C. Griesbach, came after Chevalier entered a guilty plea to possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine on May 29, 2025. After her prison sentence Chevalier will be on supervised release for an additional 60 months.
According to court documents, Chevalier was the passenger in a car that fled from Shawano County law enforcement on September 10, 2024. The vehicle entered the Menominee Indian Reservation and tribal and county law enforcement continued the chase. The vehicle drove north through Keshena and ultimately stopped at a residence near Crow Settlement Road and Wisconsin State Highway 47. Chevalier and others jumped out of the car and began to run toward the residence but were apprehended outside the home. Chevalier had multiple plastic bags on her person, containing a total of 43.11 grams of methamphetamine.
At his sentencing hearing, Judge Griesbach noted Chevalier's lengthy criminal history and the seriousness of the offense. Judge Griesbach also considered the damage done to the Menominee Indian Reservation and other communities through abuse of controlled substances, and the danger those substances represent to the people who buy them.
The case was investigated by the Menominee Tribal Police and Federal Bureau of Investigation, with assistance from the Shawano County Sheriff's Office, Menominee County Sheriff's Office, and Wisconsin State Crime Laboratory. Assistant United States Attorney Andrew J. Maier prosecuted the case in U.S. District Court in Green Bay.
