Madison, Wisconsin criminal defense lawyer represented the Defendant charged with

Wausau Man Sentenced to 8 Years for Methamphetamine Trafficking

Bee Her, 45, Wausau, Wisconsin, was indicted for distributing 50 grams or more of methamphetamine.



In 2023, investigators with the Central Wisconsin Narcotics Task Force identified Bee Her as a multi-pound methamphetamine dealer operating out of Wausau. On October 13, 2023, a confidential informant purchased one pound of methamphetamine from Her at Her's residence. On October 23, 2023, a confidential informant received two ounces of methamphetamine from Her at Her's residence.



On February 8, 2024, Her was arrested on an active supervision warrant. Information obtained during the investigation suggests that Her was working for the cartels to traffic methamphetamine and that the cartels were trying to establish a line and system near Wausau. Her told investigators that he obtained 5 pounds of methamphetamine every two to three weeks to distribute.



During this time, Her was on state supervision for two felony cases, one involving a conviction for Child Enticement-Sexual Contact and the other involving convictions for Possession of Methamphetamine and Possession of Drug Paraphernalia. Her's supervision on the child sex crime was not revoked. His supervision on the drug case was revoked and he was sentenced to one year in jail.



At sentencing, Judge Conley said Her was identified as a large-scale trafficker of methamphetamine in Wausau with connections to Minnesota and Mexico and weighed the seriousness of Her's conduct against his addiction to methamphetamine.



The charge against Her was the result of an investigation conducted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation's Central Wisconsin Narcotics Task Force comprised of investigators from the FBI, Wisconsin State Patrol, Wisconsin Department of Criminal Investigation, Lincoln County Sheriff's Office, Marathon County Sheriff's Office, Portage County Sheriff's Office, Mountain Bay Police Department, Wausau Police Department and Wisconsin National Guard Counter Drug Program. Assistant U.S. Attorney Steven P. Anderson prosecuted this case.
