A Coeur d'Alene man was sentenced Monday to 77 months in federal prison for possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine, the U.S. Attorney's Office announced.

U.S. District Judge Edward J. Lodge also ordered Larry McMillan, 31, to serve four years of supervised release following his prison term. McMillan pleaded guilty to the charge in September 2010.

The investigation revealed that McMillan and others traveled to the Seattle area to pick up methamphetamine, which was then sold in the Coeur d'Alene area. McMillan was part of a larger group that has been distributing methamphetamine in North Idaho for two years.

Twenty defendants have been arrested in the investigation, 18 have been convicted and 17 have been sentenced. Previously sentenced defendants include Brenda Barron and Amber Larsen.

Shad Johnson, who also pleaded guilty to the distribution of methamphetamine in this investigation, will be sentenced on Jan. 25.
