The operator of a number of 'clean and sober' residential facilities in Snohomish County, Washington was sentenced today in U.S. District Court in Seattle to six years in prison and five years of supervised release for drug trafficking crimes, announced U.S. Attorney Annette L. Hayes. TIMOTHY REHBERG, 50, of Everett was arrested on February 9, 2016, following an investigation that revealed he was dealing illegal drugs. In a search of the office at the primary I.C. Clean People Recovery Housing, Incorporated facility in Everett, authorities located approximately one pound of crystal methamphetamine, a quarter pound of heroin, small quantities of marijuana, oxycodone and methadone, and a loaded .38 caliber revolver. REHBERG pleaded guilty in September 2016 to possession of heroin and methamphetamine with intent to distribute and possession of a firearm in furtherance of a drug trafficking crime. At the sentencing hearing U.S. District Judge Robert S. Lasnik said, "there is no excuse for having that loaded firearm in the safe."
