A 27-year-old Lincoln man involved in a marijuana operation has been given five years in federal prison.
On Friday, Justin Fisher also was ordered to serve five years of supervised release after he leaves prison.
A news release from the office of U.S. Attorney Deborah Gilg says more than 900 marijuana plants and several pieces of gear needed for growing the pot were seized at Fisher's Lincoln home in March.
The release says Fisher had let another man use the home to grow the marijuana. That man, Chien Nguyen (CHEEN WIN), also was charged with conspiracy to manufacture marijuana.
Nguyen had pleaded not guilty in May. Court records say he's due back in court Feb. 7 for a change-of-plea hearing.
