A 29-year-old Green Ridge man facing multiple felony charges following the execution of several search warrants last year has a court proceeding set for this week.
According to a report from the Sedalia Police Department, officers conducted a traffic stop of a suspect related to an ongoing drug investigation, and Samuel David Woolery II was immediately taken into custody on April 16, 2020.
Sedalia Police Department’s Drug Enforcement Unit investigators, patrol officers and Pettis County Sheriff’s deputies served five search warrants at residences in Sedalia and Green Ridge, two storage units in Sedalia and the suspect’s vehicle nearly simultaneously, and they allegedly found numerous drug-related items and a weapon.
Woolery is facing a Class B Felony for Manufacturing a Controlled Substance within 2,000 Feet of a School or College; a Class C Felony for Delivery of a Controlled Substance; three counts of a Class D Felony for Possession of a Controlled Substance; and an Unclassified Felony for Unlawful Use of a Weapon. Woolery posted $125,000 surety bond on April 21, 2020, and pleaded not guilty on July 20.
A motion hearing is scheduled to take place at 9 a.m. Friday, April 23, at Pettis County Circuit Court.
