Prosecutors say 40-year-old Christin Campbell-Martin of Ames and 28-year-old Adam Scott Leiva, of Marshalltown, had been driving around Iowa, selling meth for a couple of days, and were arrested in late May of 2018 before they could sell a batch in the Cedar Rapids area.

Campbell-Martin has 25 prior convictions and she’ll spend 16 years in federal prison. Leiva has 13 prior convictions and his sentence was for 19-and-a-half years.
