A Union City woman accused of participating in a methamphetamine-selling ring was sentenced Feb. 23 in U.S. District Court in Jackson.

Janet Martinez, who was born in 1979, must serve 180 months in a federal prison. She must complete a 500-hour drug program while she's there. Afterward, she will be placed on supervised release for five years, must participate in any recommended drug and alcohol testing and treatment programs and provide DNA samples.

Martinez also was ordered to pay a $100 special assessment to the court.

She was one of nine persons accused of establishing a methamphetamine market in Obion County. All nine have pleaded guilty; two more are awaiting sentencing.
