SKOWHEGAN — Five people arrested in September in a major drug raid in Detroit are among those indicted this week by a Somerset County grand jury.
Search warrants were carried out in the early morning drug raid on North Road in the town of Detroit, netting authorities drugs and cash.
The raid was executed at the home of Tabatha Lombard and Lucas Judkins at 209 North Road.
During the search, police found more than 26 grams of crack cocaine, a small amount of heroin, oxycodone pills, controlled pills, over $7,400 in cash, digital scales, drug packing material, drug-related documentation, and drug-related paraphernalia, according to Somerset County Sheriff Dale Lancaster. The seized drugs have an approximate street value of $2,800, Lancaster said at the time.
Lucas Judkins, 34, of Detroit, who was arrested in the raid, was indicted by the grand jury Thursday on felony charges of unlawful trafficking of scheduled drugs, unlawful possession of scheduled drugs and conspiracy to commit trafficking in drugs, according to the indictments.
Jamel Champagne, 34, of Bronx, New York, also was indicted in connection with the raid. Champagne faces the same three felony charges, plus a more serious charge of aggravated trafficking in a scheduled drug, a class A felony, for having been convicted of criminal possession of a controlled substance with intent to sell, in March 2010 in Oneida County, New York.
He also faces criminal forfeiture of $7,437 in cash.
The third person indicted in the case is Tabatha Lombard, 30, of North Road, Detroit. She faces the same three charges of trafficking, possession and conspiracy as her housemate, Lucas Judkins.
Chelsea Clements, 21, of Plymouth, faces identical charges, plus criminal forfeiture of $7,437 in cash, as does Dashawn White, 26, of Bronx, New York.
Court dates have not been announced and it was not clear this week whether any of the five has a lawyer.
An indictment is not a finding of guilt, but is an indication that enough evidence is present to proceed with a trial.
