Two Iowa Men Appeal Sentences for Role in Neo-Nazi Drug Ring

By Associated Press

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Two more men sentenced for their roles in a drug ring run by a neo-Nazi group operating in Nebraska and Iowa are appealing their sentences.

Bradford Winnie of Blair and Gregory Stanek of Omaha have filed notices to appeal in U.S. District Court in Omaha.

Winnie was sentenced Monday to more than 17 years in prison. Stanek was ordered Thursday to serve almost 32 years.

They're among eight men who pleaded guilty to gun and drug charges tied to the group.

Chad Winters, Jeffrey Welker and Justin Snelling, all of Omaha, and Justin Hawthorne, Michael Davis and Kenny Dofner, all of Council Bluffs, Iowa, have been given prison sentences ranging from eight to more than 32 years. Snelling filed his appeal notice in August and Welker in October.
