Federal charges have come down against five people from the Ozarks in a suspected meth ring.

Noe Moreno-Malagon and Jesus Moreno-Malagon are from Ozark. Juan Moreno-Malagon is from Highlandville. Valentin Gomez-Toreres is from Battlefield. A fifth person was arrested in Morrisville.

Prosecutors say the men imported meth from California and Mexico, then sold it in southwest Missouri.

If found guilty, they could each go to prison for 10 years to life.
