Two Drug Suspects Waive Preliminary Hearing

By Greg Bebermeyer

08/17/2017

(KNZA)--Two Hiawatha residents facing drug charges waived their preliminary hearings Wednesday.

36-year-old Adam Kloss was bound over to Brown County District Court on charges of possession of methamphetamine with intent to sell/distribute within 1,000 feet of a school, possession of drug paraphernalia with intent to manufacture and possession of marijuana. Arraignment was scheduled for September 11th.

24-year-old Ashley Rhyne was bound over on charges of possession of methamphetamine, possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia. Arraignment was set for September 25th.

A third defendant in the case, 48-year-old Hiawatha resident Thelma Losson, pleaded no contest last week to charges of possession of methamphetamine and marijuana. In exchange for the plea, a charge of possession of drug paraphernalia was dismissed.

Sentencing was set for October 2nd.

The trio were arrested in March after the Hiawatha Police Department with the assistance of the Kansas Highway Patrol’s special response team, executed a search warrant at a residence located at 518 Kansas Avenue following an investigation.
