Williams Student Facing Drug ChargesStaff reports iBerkshires 09:31AM / Tuesday, February 10, 2009
WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — A Williams College student is facing drug-trafficking charges after a raid on his dorm room Friday night.
Max Blackburn, 20, of Tallahassee, Fla., is set to be arraigned Wednesday in Northern Berkshire District Court on single counts of possession with intent to distribute a Class D drug (marijuana), possession with intent to distribute a Class B drug (ecstasy) and possession of a Class B drug (cocaine). Williamstown Police in conjunction with the Berkshire County Drug Task Force executed a search warrant at 9:26 p.m. at Blackburn's Room 209 in Agard House on South Street. Police were looking for pot and related distribution paraphernalia. The dormitory is one of six southwest of the main campus in the so-called Wood neighborhood.
According to police, they seized approximately one pound of marijuana that was prepackaged and ready for street-level distribution. A small bag containing ecstasy pills was also seized, along with trace amounts of cocaine, drug paraphernalia and approximately $2,700 in cash. The search warrant stemmed from an approximate three-monthlong investigation.
Blackburn was taken to the Police Department and booked. He was released on personal recognizance after posting $500 bail.
The college prohibits the use of illegal drugs; students caught in violation can face disciplinary procedures ranging from probation to expulsion to referral for prosecution, according the college handbook. Members of the Berkshire County Drug Task Force included state police and members of the Williamstown, Lee and Dalton police departments. |
Very sad, this is a terrible way to start your life.
I'll bet his parents are crushed.
