Box Elder Woman Sentenced in Meth Case

(Pierre) – Attorney General Larry Long said that Sarah Marie Robinson, 21, of Box Elder, was sentenced today in 7th Circuit Court to 5 years in prison on the charge of child abuse and 5 years on the charge of possession of a controlled substance, both class 4 felonies.  Today’s sentencing stems from a search warrant issued for Robinson’s home on September 3, 2003. The search warrant resulted in the child abuse charge for exposing her child to methamphetamine by passing it through her breast milk. The controlled substance charge was for the possession of methamphetamine.

The case was prosecuted by Assistant Attorney General Rod Oswald and investigated by members of the Unified Narcotics Enforcement Team (UNET).
