YORK — Christine Stanton, a 59-year-old woman whose address has not been disclosed, has been charged with delivery of a controlled substance and being in the possession of more than a pound of marijuana, after being arrested in York County.
She’s accused of transporting 33 pounds of marijuana through York County.
Tuesday afternoon, her attorney, York County Public Defender Eric Williams entered a not guilty plea on her behalf, as she was unable to appear in court.
According to the arrest affidavit, she was stopped by a trooper with the Nebraska State Patrol (NSF) at the Henderson exit along Interstate 80. The trooper says that within minutes, a canine unit detected the smell of marijuana in Station’s vehicle. The trooper said that the marijuana was found in her Oregon-plated Ford Excursion. The trooper said further that a large hidden compartment was found in the floor of the vehicle, as well.
Bond was set at $250,000, 10 percent.
If convicted, Stanton could be facing up to 25 years in prison and/or $35,000 in fines, as the charges are Class 3 and 4 felonies.
