Two sentenced in court

Monday in Hot Springs District Court, Judge Bobbi Overfield sentenced Trapper Lahoe to a period of two to four years in prison on a felony charge of delivery of a controlled substance.

The charge comes from a controlled buy that happened in March, though in exchange for his guilty plea to the charge, a second count of delivery of a controlled substance and an additional felony of accessory before the fact to deliver meth were dismissed.

Also in District Court, Judge Overfield sentenced Marc A. Young to four years of supervised probation for possession of controlled substances.

Young was originally charged with felony counts of possession of marijuana, possession of meth, and possession of oxymorphine hydrochloride, and misdemeanors of speeding, no valid driver’s license, and interfering with an officer.

However, in exchange for a no contest plea for the marijuana possession the meth possession was amended to a misdemeanor and the other charges were dismissed.

The charges stem from a March 2014 incident in which a vehicle Young was driving was stopped.

Due to the stressed way he was acting, Young was asked to step out of the vehicle and did so, but kept reaching in his pockets though he was advised not to by the officer.

Young also kept stepping away from the officer and had to be physically restrained in order to complete a pat down.

The vehicle was also searched and located inside were marijuana that tested presumptive positive for THC, a pipe with residue that tested presumptive positive for meth and pills that tested presumptive positive for oxymorphine hydrochloride
