MASON CITY – On Tuesday, February 28th, 30-year-old Whiskey Elana Bearbow of Mason City was sentenced to serve three to five years of probation after plea bargaining to three counts of possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver.
Bearbow had been arrested along with fourteen other defendants in July of 2011 as part of an investigation by the North Iowa Drug Task Force.
The charges stemmed from Bearbow’s delivery of methamphetamine on September 24th and October 26th, and another delivery of marijuana on October 13th, 2010. Additional deliveries of methamphetamine on July 23rd, November 10th do not show deposition status in the court records.
Court records show Bearbow entered a voluntary negotiated guilty plea on January 18th, 2012. On Monday, February 28th, Bearbow was sentenced by District Court Judge Christopher C. Foy to two ten year suspended prison sentences for the methamphetamine deliveries, and a five year suspended prison sentence on the marijuana delivery.
Bearbow must serve three to five years of probation with the Iowa Department of Corrections. In addition to suspending Bearbow’s prison sentences Judge Foy also suspended three $1000 court fines in the convictions.
SUBJECT IS INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY.
here in eastern iowa my husband is doing 5 months in prison for taking two bottles of soda from a store, that he offered to pay for before he left! and they wonder why the prison system is overcrowded… guess their answer is to let meth dealers go free…
Not sure how many of the people 14 people they arrested were connected to each other but pretty sure some were if not all and last I knew that would be a CONSPIRACY???!!!! And the FEDS didn’t pick any of them up?! What a crock of bullsh*t that is since they had no problem picking up a couple in the last few months that weren’t probably in the “game” as long as these 14……and all it took was ONE charge of possession w/intent for some the FEDS got not THREE like this chic had! Someone’s got diarrhea of the mouth like a muthafkr!!
Thank You for your recent help with the recent meth busts Whiskey!!
Sincerely,
The Feds
How does that work u get multiple counts of delivery of meth… Then u end up with probation.. Yet people around here are selling weed and are getting years in prison.. Yet meth kills people and weed is prescribed… Lovely Mason City courts…
she took a plea…the only reason she got probation is because everyone shes ever dealt with…is going to be watched and arrested..
Is it better to have a drug problem or a drinking problem?? So many OWI & public intox people are facing prison time, but deal meth & have no consequences. How’s it feel to have no soul Iowa court system? SMDH.
She’ll mess up again soon and her probation will be revoked and she’ll go to jail. We need rehab prisons with drug dogs making hourly rounds.
They need to start charging in Federal Court. They wouldn’t allow this to happen. That’s how it’s done in NW Iowa and the dealers do prison time. This is getting stupid.

Are they kidding, this is WHY the crap keeps floating around this town, they know they will get a tap on the head and go on their merry way.
I agree! The court system in North Iowa is seriously flawed. People with less serious offenses are spending time in jail and meth heads are free to run around, brewing up their stuff and selling it to our children. What a bunch of s***.
EEEYYOOOWWWWIIIIIEEEEE, gonna quit drinking whiskey!
Meth?? Or crack whore???
slap my wrist so i can get back to the kitchen and make a batch. my boys are hungry,
