DES MOINES – An Oskaloosa man, Cody James Vancenbrock, age 28, was sentenced on July 29, 2021, by United States District Court Judge Rebecca Goodgame Ebinger, to 240 months in prison for Distribution of Methamphetamine Resulting in Death. Following imprisonment, Vancenbrock is ordered to serve five years of supervised release, pay restitution, and pay $100 to the Crime Victims Fund. Acting United States Attorney Richard D.
