Helena woman sentenced in 2021 drug trafficking ring

GREAT FALLS – A Helena woman who admitted to helping bring pounds of methamphetamine from Las Vegas, to Montana for distribution was sentenced this week. A judge ordered Rhonda Jeanette Lapier, also known as Rhonda Trench to five years and six months in prison. The 49 year old pleaded guilty to drug trafficking charges last year, after an investigation in Great Falls led to Lapier’s residence, where officers located about three pounds of meth and over $6,000 in cash.
