On April 17, 2014, the Honorable William Yoder, Associate Judge of
the Eleventh Judicial Circuit sentenced Derek Cooper to six (6)
years in the Illinois Department of Corrections for the offense of
Unlawful Participation in Methamphetamine Manufacturing, a class 1
felony.
"Methamphetamine is
a very dangerous drug – not only in the consumption of it but also
in the production of it," stated Jonathan Wright, Logan County
State's Attorney. The case arose from a Lincoln Police Department
investigation that began in November of 2013. "The hard work of the
Lincoln Police Department resulted not only in a successful
prosecution but also resulted in the removal of a small meth lab
from a residential neighborhood," added Wright.
