Lincoln Man Sentenced to More Than 12 Years for Drug Charge

United States Attorney Lesley A. Woods announced that Da'Marsell Contrell Miller, 26, of Omaha, Nebraska, was sentenced on May 7, 2026, in federal court in Lincoln, Nebraska, for one count of distribution/possession with intent to distribute 500 grams or more of methamphetamine. United States District Judge Susan M. Bazis sentenced Miller to a total of 151 months' imprisonment. There is no parole in the federal system. After Miller's release from prison, he will begin a five-year term of supervised release. Miller will also forfeit $7,938.00 in U.S. currency to the United States of America.

Between March 3, 2025, and March 12, 2025, the Lincoln Lancaster County Narcotics Task Force, using a third party, made three purchases from Miller at his residence in Lincoln, totaling approximately eight ounces of a substance which pre-tested positive for methamphetamine. The third purchase on March 12, 2025, occurred in Miller's car which was parked in the driveway of that residence. After the buy was completed, investigators followed Miller the residence to a convenience store parking lot where they contacted and detained him.

Investigators executed search warrants on his vehicle and the Lincoln residence. In his car, they found a 9mm pistol under the driver's seat and the $800 cash used by law enforcement to buy methamphetamine on that date was found in the center console. During the search of Miller's residence, law enforcement found approximately 4.75 pounds of methamphetamine, four additional firearms and ammunition, $7,938.00 in cash, and a digital scale.

This case was investigated by the Lincoln/Lancaster County Narcotics Drug Task Force.
