He was indicted on a total of three crimes, including possession of a controlled dangerous substance (CDS), possession of a CDS with the intent to distribute and possess of a CDS within 1,000 feet of a school with the intent to distribute. All are in the third degree.
An indictment does not indicate a conviction, only that a grand jury voted there was enough evidence to proceed with a trial.
