A Stow man was indicted for on charges of possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine.
Jusean Foster, 30, possessed at least 50 grams of methamphetamine on June 5, according to the indictment.
This case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney David M. Toepfer following an investigation by the Portage County Drug Task Force, the Portage County Sheriff’s Office and the Drug Enforcement Administration.
If convicted, the defendant’s sentence will be determined by the Court after review of factors unique to this case, including the defendant’s prior criminal record, if any, the defendant’s role in the offense and the characteristics of the violations. In all cases, the sentence will not exceed the statutory maximum and, in most cases, it will be less than the maximum.
An indictment is only a charge and is not evidence of guilt. A defendant is entitled to a fair trial in which it will be the government’s burden to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
