WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — A woman who tried to flush nearly $4,000 in drug money down a toilet was sentenced to 10 years in federal prison.

U.S. Attorney Barry Grissom said in a news release that 26-year-old Marisela Rameriz was sentenced Monday for one count of conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine.

Rameriz admitted she helped arrange for 16 mounts of methamphetamine to be transported from California to Kansas. When she was arrested, she tried to flush $3,880 in cash down a cell block toilet.

One of her co-defendants, Jorge Rodriguez-Maciel, was sentenced to 12 years in prison. Another is scheduled for sentencing Friday and the third is awaiting trial.
