The U-S Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Iowa reports a Council Bluffs man was sentenced Wednesday in Council Bluffs U-S District Court, to 200 months (16.6-years) in prison for Possession with Intent to Distribute a Controlled Substance. 38-year old Jason Nicholas Feller was also required to serve a five-year term of supervised release, following completion of his incarceration.

Feller pleaded guilty in April of 2019. On December 30, 2018, Council Bluffs Police conducted a traffic stop on Feller, during which he admitted he had drugs in the vehicle. A search of the vehicle resulted in the recovery of two baggies containing approximately 12 grams of methamphetamine. Officers later located a container with a false bottom that held approximately 63 grams of methamphetamine.

The case was investigated by the Council Bluffs Police Department, Southwest Iowa Narcotics Enforcement Task Force, and the Iowa Division of Narcotics Enforcement. The case was prosecuted by the United States Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Iowa.
