A 20-year-old Hutchinson man arrested back on April 23 after a search warrant was served on his residence at 720 East 14th Terrance was in court Monday morning for the formal reading of charges.
Quinten Darby is charged with possession of marijuana with intent to sell within a 1,000 feet of a school, possession of drug paraphernalia with intent to package of a controlled substance, and no drug tax stamp.
During that search of Darby’s home, drug unit officers allegedly found a backpack containing approximately 40-grams of high grade marijuana and digital scales. Then in his room, they allegedly found a brown bag with an additional 25-grams of marijuana. Next to his bed was a sandwich box with baggies which they allege was used to package the marijuana for sale.
He was then arrested and during a search of his person, they allegedly located inside his pants pocket, some prepackaged marijuana and a large sum of cash with a rubber band around it. His residence is located directly across the street from Graber Elementary School.
Magistrate Judge Randy McEwen read the formal complaint and then scheduled the case for the waiver status docket on May 22.
