A Nebraska man has been sentenced to more than ten years in prison for his part in a conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine.

U.S. Attorney for Nebraska Deborah R. Gilg announced Creston Lee Christlieb, 30, of Beatrice, was sentenced Wednesday to 121 months in prison.

Between January of 2013 and September of 2015 officials say Christlieb was responsible for the distribution of more than 11 pounds of meth in the Lincoln and Beatrice areas.

Following the prison term, Christlieb will serve five years on supervised release.

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