Pocahontas Meth Sentence



Pocahontas, IA (KICD)--A Pocahontas man avoids jail time in connection with meth charges filed by the Pocahontas County Sheriff's Office.

20-year-old Jerry Schoon pled guilty to a class C felony controlled substance crime last week in Pocahontas County District Court in relation to conspiracy to make meth. This was originally a class B felony charge as the home where the meth precursors were found was within 2,000 feet of a park. Schoon also pled guilty to a class D felony charge of possession of precursors to methamphetamine. Schoon will have to go to a residential facility for 180 days and will serve two years of probation following his release. Prison terms of 10 and 5 years to be served consecutively were suspended.

The charges stem from a search for a clandestine meth lab at a home at 208 South Main Street in Pocahontas in May. An appeal bond for both cahrges stands at $22,500.
