Christopher Wayne Gordy
An out-of-county man and woman were arrested Saturday on multiple drug charges.
Chief Deputy Scott Hammond reported that on January 3 Deputy Kelley was dispatched to a possible burglary in progress. When he and Deputy Payton arrived at the scene, they came in contact with a vehicle.
Both individuals in the vehicle were detained, and deputies discovered that both of them had outstanding warrants with other agencies.
While conducting an inventory of the vehicle, deputies recovered a glass case with a glass pipe containing residue, as well as an orange pill bottle with no name on it that contained a baggy of a green leafy substance that smelled like marijuana.
Deputies also retrieved two clear baggies containing a white crystal-like substance.
At that time 55-year-old Rose Marie Harrison Josey of Talladega was arrested on the charges of possession of methamphetamine, second-degree possession of marijuana and use or possession with intent to use drug paraphernalia.
Christopher Wayne Gordy; 53 years old, of Anniston; was also arrested and charged with possession of methamphetamine, second-degree possession of marijuana, possession of drug paraphernalia, and giving false identification to law enforcement officers.
Josey’s total bond for all three charges was set at $10,000, and Gordy’s total bond for all four charges was set at $12,500. As of press time both remained in custody at the Coosa County Jail awaiting trial.
