Caleb Woodell of Mountain Home was sentenced to three years probation after entering a no contest plea to drug-related charges during a session of Baxter County Circuit Court Thursday.
The 27-year-old Woodell, who was reported to be living in a residence along Rossi Road also occupied by Wayne Willett, was sentenced under the provisions of Act 346, meaning if he stays out of trouble during his probation period, he can apply to the court to have his record sealed.
During a search of the property was done by the 14th Judicial District Drug Task Force in mid-February last year, the investigators reported finding nearly a pound of marijuana at the residence, along with several items of drug paraphernalia and a number of guns.
Woodell was reported to have been away from the residence at the time of the search. He did, however, call the Mountain Home Police Department asking that guns he owned which were taken during the search be returned to him. He told MHPD he was at the Rossi Road residence. When they got there, Woodell fled from the home. He was apprehended a short time later.
The 60-year-old Willett pled guilty to his charges stemming from last year’s raid during a court session in mid-January. He was also given three years probation.
