Pair arrested in Louisdale bust expected in court

Two people charged in relation to a drug bust in Richmond Co. are scheduled to return to court Thursday.

RCMP say members of their Street Crime Enforcement Unit searched a home in Louisdale and seized oxycodone, marijuana and drug paraphernalia in March.

Herbert Joseph Sampson, 54, and Patricia Ann Peeples, 53, are both from Louisdale; they’ve each been charged with possession of oxycodone for the purpose of trafficking and possession of marijuana for the purpose of trafficking.

Sampson and Peeples are scheduled for election-and-plea in Port Hawkesbury Provincial Court after the hearing was adjourned several times.
