FAYETTEVILLE -- A Farmington woman has been sentenced to five years and three months in federal prison for her conviction on one count of distributing methamphetamine.

Judge Tim Brooks sentenced Tammy Harp, 52, on Thursday. She also was sentenced to four years of supervised release and ordered to pay $1,900 in fines.

Typically, federal inmates must serve 85 percent of their sentences.

Investigators bought about 6.4 ounces of methamphetamine from Harp in April, according to a news release. The Arkansas Crime Laboratory confirmed the drug was a mixture of methamphetamine.

Harp was indicted by a federal grand jury in June and plead guilty the same month.

U.S. Homeland Security, U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration and the Rogers Police Department investigated the case.
