A Cayuga County jury found a Rochester man guilty Wednesday night of third-degree criminal possession of drugs.
Kevin Henry, 36, was arrested in December 2006 when Auburn police arrived at 7401 Owasco St., Auburn, to carry out a search warrant for drugs. Police saw Henry throw a blue candy container, which he used to store drugs, under a car and found a small bag of marijuana and more than 500 milligrams of cocaine inside.
Henry has a prior felony conviction in Rochester for possessing two loaded hand guns and running away from police. Henry will receive a 2.5 to 4.5 year sentence when he is sentenced on April 22.
Also in court:
• Michele Flowers, 47, of 28 Danforth St., Rochester, pleaded not guilty to fourth-degree conspiracy, two counts of third-degree sale of a criminal substance and third-degree possession of a criminal substance.
No bail was set.
• Reginald Lawson 49, of 28 Danforth St., Rochester, pleaded not guilty to third-degree possession of a controlled substance and the second-degree use of drug paraphernalia.
Lawson was already out on bail when he appeared in court. Auburn City Judge Thomas Shamon set bail at an $2,500 cash or bond.
• Cayuga County Judge Thomas Leone reserved his decision on changing the sex offender status of an Auburn man.
James Hunter, of 5834 Lakeview Drive, Auburn, was convicted of sexually assaulting a young girl at gunpoint in August 1994.
Leone said he wanted to look over the transcript from the original status hearing before making a judgment on a status change.
• An Auburn man was sentenced to one year in Cayuga County Jail for statutory rape.
Robert Decker Jr., 18, of 27 Case Ave., Apt. 2, Auburn, admitted having sex with a 12-year-old on four different occasions.
An order of protection was issued for the victim.
• Consualo Sanders pleaded guilty to third-degree criminal sale of a narcotic drug.
Sanders, 23, of 42 John St., Geneva, faces six years in prison and three years post release supervision.
Sanders was put on parole Dec. 4, 2007 for second-degree assault before she was arrested for the sale of a narcotic drug in Auburn on Dec. 5, 2007.
