TACOMA, Wash. (AP) — A Tacoma couple has been sentenced to five and seven years in prison after authorities found large quantities of methamphetamine, cocaine and MDMA in their home. Federal prosecutors say Jaymes Gallagher was sentenced to seven years in prison and Brittany Chipman got a five-and-a-half year sentence on Wednesday. Law enforcement took notice of Gallagher after some undercover drug purchases in 2019. Officers searched their home and found 6 pounds of MDMA, more than a pound of cocaine and 23 pounds of meth. The couple was indicted in 2019 and pleaded guilty to conspiracy to distribute controlled substances and a firearm charge in March 2020.
