A Mountain Home man was sentenced to two years in prison during a session of Baxter County Circuit Court Monday for violating the terms and conditions of his probation.
Thirty-four-year-old Eric Olsen was one of six people arrested on drug-related charges at a house along South College Street in early September last year.
Olsen was sentenced to four years probation on a charge of possessing drug paraphernalia. Olsen admitted he had failed to report as required and had changed residences without notifying his probation officer.
Olsen’s original arrest came after officers went to the South College Street residence to conduct a compliance visit and found him and five others living in the home.
They also found 50 used syringes, glass smoking pipes and digital scales.
According to the probable cause affidavit, the syringes were found in every room in the house.
Some were in an empty laundry detergent container, a Mountain Dew bottle, between mattresses, on top of dressers and in closets.
