A Christian County judge sentenced a Taylorville woman to five years in the Illinois Department of Corrections Thursday. 

According to Christian County State’s Attorney Wes Poggenpohl, 28-year-old Constance Sherman pleads guilty to Unlawful Delivery of Methamphetamine related to an investigation the Taylorville Police Department and Community Action Team conducted in January. 

Sherman also has a concurrent two year sentence in the Department of Corrections for violating her probation in a previous Unlawful Possession of Methamphetamine case. 

Poggenpohl thanks the Taylorville Police Department and Community Action team for their efforts combating the sale of methamphetamine and other dangerous drugs in the community. 

Unlawful Delivery of Methamphetamine is a Class 2 Felony carrying a sentencing range of 3 to 7 years in prison. This sentence will be served at 50 percent.
