Five indicted for indoor marijuana grow

Five people were indicted March 21 by a LaRue County grand jury for their alleged involvement in an indoor marijuana growing operation.
Jeffery Purdam, age unavailable, of Hodgenville; Brenna Marie Buchanan, 32, of Glendale; Annette Louise Fish, 48, of Magnolia; John David Maylee, 47, of Mexico, Mo.; and Marcus Brian Wiley, 40, of Magnolia, were each charged with cultivating marijuana, five or more plants and complicity; possession of drug paraphernalia and complicity; and possession of marijuana and complicity.
They are accused of cultivating five or more plants of marijuana with the intent to sell or otherwise transfer the marijuana on Feb. 23.
Buchanan faces an additional charge of endangering the welfare of a minor.
Bail was set at $9,500 each, cash only upon condition that the accused have no contact with each other.
Deputy Matt Darst of the LaRue County Sheriff’s Office investigated. Darst said the indoor grow, located in a mobile home on Greensburg Road, contained about 300 plants.
The indictment of a person by a grand jury is an accusation only and the person is innocent unless and until proven guilty.
