Richmond Co. drug bust suspect scheduled for sentencing

A man charged in relation to a drug bust in Richmond Co. is expected back in court Monday.

RCMP say officers searched a home in West Arichat in September.

They say they seized cocaine, hash, marijuana, cutting agent, cash and other drug trafficking paraphernalia.

Police charged Jonathan Roger Vance, 25, with possession of cocaine for the purpose of trafficking and three weapons-related counts.

Vance pleaded guilty during an election-and-plea hearing in May; he’s scheduled to return to Port Hawkesbury Provincial Court for sentencing.
