A Jefferson woman was recently sentenced to probation for her role in a drug network investigation.

According to court documents, 39-year-old Tanisha Dillinger pled guilty to an amended charge Class C Felony for intent to deliver methamphetamine under five grams. The original charge was a felony for conspiring to manufacture or possess methamphetamine with intent to deliver. As per a plea agreement, she had a ten year prison sentence suspended and was placed on probation for three years. 

The charge stemmed from a lengthy investigation by the Greene County Sheriff’s Office that started in September of 2020. During the investigation, it was discovered that Dillinger was part of an overall drug network that also included other individuals in a hierarchy structure. 

Dillinger was also ordered to pay court-appointed attorney fees and court costs. The plea agreement also included dismissed charges of a Class B Felony for ongoing criminal conduct and a serious misdemeanor for her first offense for possession of marijuana.
