Bozeman 冰毒网络主犯已判18年多：Belgrade 男子 Towner 作为主要卖家被判5年10个月，同伙12月17日量刑
美国司法部蒙大拿区联邦检察官办公室宣布，蒙大拿州 Belgrade 市男子 Dakota Bradfield Towner 本周四在联邦法院被判处5年10个月监禁，其后须接受3年监管释放。联邦检察官 Scott Twito 公布了量刑结果，主审法官为联邦地区法官 Kathleen S. Lane。
现年31岁的 Towner 今年6月认罪，罪名是持有冰毒并意图分销。检方在法庭文件中指控，他是 Chad Allen Bachmann 贩毒网络的主要卖家之一，在 Bozeman 一带出售冰毒；Bachmann 从 Red Lodge 的一间储物仓出货，今年7月已被判处18年多监禁。
2023年至2025年间，Missouri River 毒品特别工作组对 Towner 进行了多次控制购买，由线人向他买下数量不等的冰毒。与他共同作案的 Raven Renay Thompson 向调查人员供认，Bachmann 是他们的冰毒来源；Thompson 已于今年8月就贩运罪名认罪，将于12月17日量刑。
本案由联邦助理检察官 Colin Rubich 负责起诉，东蒙大拿高强度贩毒区（HIDTA）特别工作组与 Missouri River 毒品特别工作组共同负责调查。
Bozeman Meth Network's Leader Got 18 Years: Belgrade Man Towner, a Main Seller, Sentenced to 5 Years and 10 Months
The U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Montana announced that Dakota Bradfield Towner, of Belgrade, Montana, was sentenced on Thursday to five years and 10 months in prison, followed by three years of supervised release, for trafficking methamphetamine in Bozeman. U.S. Attorney Scott Twito announced the sentence, imposed by U.S. District Judge Kathleen S. Lane.
Towner, 31, pleaded guilty in June 2026 to possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine. Prosecutors alleged he was a main seller for Chad Allen Bachmann, who trafficked meth out of a storage unit in Red Lodge and was sentenced in July 2026 to more than 18 years in prison.
Between 2023 and 2025, the Missouri River Drug Task Force set up a series of controlled buys from Towner, purchasing varying amounts of meth through informants. His accomplice Raven Renay Thompson told investigators Bachmann was their source; Thompson pleaded guilty to trafficking charges in August 2026 and will be sentenced on December 17.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Colin Rubich prosecuted the case, investigated by the Eastern Montana High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area Task Force and the Missouri River Drug Task Force.
