George Jared Peck, 36, from Greybull, Wyoming, has been sentenced to over ten years in prison for possession of child pornography. The court also ordered him to pay $23,000 in restitution to the victims. According to court documents, the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children received a CyberTip on March 5, 2024, about an attempt to upload a child exploitation image online. This tip led investigators from the Wyoming Division of Criminal Investigation Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force back to Peck. Chief U.S. District Court Judge Kelly H. Rankin imposed the sentence on July 14 in Cheyenne.

Mary Renee Weymouth, 63, of Lander, Wyoming, was sentenced to nearly six years in prison for drug-related charges involving methamphetamine and marijuana distribution. Investigators intercepted Weymouth and her codefendant Cathy Kay Gordon returning from Las Vegas with drugs. Assistant U.S. Attorney Timothy W. Gist prosecuted the case before U.S. District Court Judge Alan B. Johnson issued the sentence on July 14 in Cheyenne.

Cathy Kay Gordon received a ten-year sentence for drug trafficking and firearm charges related to her conspiracy with Weymouth to distribute drugs in Fremont County.

Angel Anibel Felipe-Perez from Tabasco, Mexico, was sentenced to 18 months’ imprisonment followed by deportation for illegal reentry into the United States after being previously deported.
