Charles Edward Huller III and Janet Elizabeth Lockwood pleaded guilty to conspiracy to distribute 500 grams or more of a mixture or substance containing a detectable amount of meth in U.S. District Court of Minnesota.
Court documents state Huller and Lockwood were arrested after authorities found 10 cellophane-wrapped packages, each containing approximately 1 pound of suspected meth in the trunk of the vehicle they were driving during a traffic stop Oct. 19 on Interstate 35. Two grams of meth were later taken from Huller in the Freeborn County jail.

U.S. District Court documents state during a post-arrest interview, Lockwood said she was taking the meth to a customer in St. Paul, and Huller knew that at least 1 pound of meth was in the vehicle because they had used some of the drug during their drive from California.
Huller and Lockwood face a mandatory minimum sentence of 10 years in prison.
