CASPER, CASPER, Wyo. — A Casper man will serve more than 12 years in federal prison for his role as a primary distributor in a multicounty drug trafficking ring, federal officials said. Bryan James Hackleman, 44, of Casper, was sentenced to 151 months in federal prison, followed by five years of supervised release, for conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine and possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine. U.S. District Court Judge Scott W. Skavdahl imposed the sentence July 28 in Casper. According to federal court documents, the Wyoming Department of Criminal Investigation (DCI), with assistance from the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) and multiple state and local agencies, investigated a drug trafficking organization operating in Wyoming and Colorado. Investigators identified Hackleman as one of the conspirators selling large quantities of methamphetamine in and around Natrona County. Law enforcement intercepted Hackleman Nov. 10, 2025, near Casper. A search of his vehicle found scales, syringes and nearly half a pound, or about 205 grams, of methamphetamine. Agents determined Hackleman distributed more than 16 pounds of methamphetamine during the conspiracy. Hackleman was arrested Nov. 10, 2025, on related state charges that were later dismissed. A federal complaint was filed Jan. 23, and he was taken into federal custody Jan. 27. Hackleman pleaded guilty to an information May 4. The DCI, with assistance from the DEA, HSI and multiple state and local law enforcement agencies in Wyoming and Colorado, investigated the case. Assistant U.S. Attorney Z. Seth Griswold prosecuted the case. U.S. Attorney Darin Smith said, “Cases like this demonstrate our commitment to disrupting the flow of dangerous drugs into Wyoming communities and holding repeat offenders accountable. Methamphetamine trafficking fuels addiction, violence and instability, and today’s sentence reflects the seriousness of those harms. This outcome underscores the importance of strong partnerships between federal, state and local agencies working together to protect the safety and well-being of the public.”
