An Indiana man is due in district court today for a preliminary hearing on drug-related charges.
The hearing for 36-year-old Lamar Virgil Clemons of Indiana will focus on two felony counts of manufacture, delivery or possession of a controlled substance with the intent to deliver that were filed in June of 2018. Clemons has a lengthy criminal history with drug-related cases going back to 2015. Last time he was in court, he was answering to a charge of deposits, stores and disposing of chemical waste. That charge was connected with a meth lab bust in March of 2019. Police searched his home in White Township and found a “one-pot” setup in his bedroom. Both Clemons and Andrew Walagura of Renfrew, Butler County, were arrested that day.
Clemons had entered a guilty plea in December of 2019, and in January of 2020, he was ordered to serve 11 months to a day less than two years in Indiana County Jail along with three years of probation after that. Walagura pleaded guilty to a charge of possession of a controlled substance in October of 2019 and was ordered to serve three months to 190 days in county jail,
Several summary trials are also scheduled for the final day of court activity in 2021, as the courts will be closed tomorrow for New Year’s Eve.
