Description

A Coram man accused of possessing methamphetamine admitted to a distribution crime Monday, according to U.S. Attorney Kurt Alme.

Blaine Justin Olds, 51, pleaded guilty to possession with intent to distribute meth. Olds faces a mandatory minimum of 10 years to life in prison, a $10 million fine and at least five years of supervised release.

Olds was detained pending further proceedings. His sentencing was set for Sept. 18, 2025.

U.S. District Judge Brian Morris presided and will determine any sentence.

According to the news release, beginning in May 2024, Olds and his co-defendant traveled from their home in Coram to the Blackfeet Indian Reservation to deliver large amounts of meth. In October of that year, law enforcement arranged three controlled purchases from the defendants.

In each instance, Olds and his co-defendant traveled from Coram to the Blackfeet Reservation and exchange large amounts of meth for money.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Kalah Paisley prosecuted the case. The Drug Enforcement Administration, FBI and Blackfeet Law Enforcement Services conducted the investigation.

This case is part of Project Safe Neighborhoods, a program bringing together all levels of law enforcement and the communities they serve to reduce violent crime and gun violence, and to make neighborhoods safer for everyone.
