Nephew of tribal judge sentenced (Wyoming)
By Gazette News Services
RIVERTON -- A nephew of a tribal judge accused of enlisting relatives to deal methamphetamine, cocaine, marijuana and prescription drugs on the Wind River Indian Reservation was sentenced to 17½ years in federal prison for his role in the drug ring.
James Goodman, 43, previously pleaded guilty to conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine and marijuana. He was sentenced in U.S. District Court in Casper.
Twenty-five people were charged in the case -- the largest drug bust in reservation history. Among them was former Judge Lynda Munnell, also known as Lynda Noah, who was charged with threats against a federal officer, distribution of prescription pills and conspiracy.
Donna Goodman, Munnell's sister, and Goodman's husband, John, were accused of enlisting various family members for the drug ring. They are accused of distributing more than a pound of meth per month.
