A federal jury has convicted Bobby Scott Glenn, 40, of Walnut Ridge, of multiple charges related to his involvement in a methamphetamine conspiracy, according to court documents. Glenn was found guilty of conspiracy to distribute and possess with the intent to distribute 50 grams or more of methamphetamine, as well as one count of distributing methamphetamine.
The case stems from a federal indictment issued on May 9, 2024. Glenn and his co-defendant, 72-year-old Harry Keith Lane of Corning, were accused of collaborating to distribute significant quantities of the drug across three Arkansas counties. Lane previously pleaded guilty last month to conspiracy charges involving at least 509 grams of methamphetamine and is awaiting sentencing.
Following the jury’s decision, Glenn was taken into custody. Sentencing will occur at a later date. Both Glenn and Lane face harsh penalties under federal sentencing guidelines, including the possibility of life imprisonment and a minimum of five years of supervised release. Federal law does not allow for parole.
The investigation was conducted by Homeland Security Investigations, highlighting the ongoing federal focus on tackling drug trafficking in Arkansas and beyond.
