A Senoia man renting a home in Peachtree City used it as "a drugstore" for
selling illicit drugs and prescription medication, police said Tuesday morning.
James Anthony Strickland, 22, of 1261 Johnson Rd., Senoia, was arrested
at the home he rented in the Center Green subdivision early Thursday morning,
charged with over a dozen drug offenses.
The most significant charge was a trafficking cocaine warrant filed against
Strickland. In the warrant, Strickland was charged with having 299 grams
of cocaine, almost half a pound, said Peachtree City Police Chief James Murray.
At Murray's request, Fayette County Magistrate Joe A. Tinsley banned
Strickland from Peachtree City except to attend court and to meet with his
attorney, the chief said. Tinsley also set a $300,000 bond on Strickland.
In addition to the trafficking count, Strickland is charged with possession
of Soma, Xanax, Zolpidem and methamphetamine, all felony counts. He also
faces three felony counts of failure to keep prescription drugs in their
original container and two counts of possession of drug-related objects.
"We had a drugstore going on over there," Murray said.
