MARION, Ill.—In a little-covered case out of Williamson County, a former Marion police officer has been hemmed up on a meth charge.
Steven C. Waterbury, 61, was charged November 18, with a November 15 incident of Using a Vehicle, Structure or Property to Manufacture Meth, a Class 2 felony.
While we’re working to secure details of the alleged incident, court documents are showing that Waterbury had a preliminary hearing scheduled for yesterday, December 9, 2013. Whether that actually went off or not is something that our correspondent is looking into. His status within the police department is also something she’s investigating and we’ll bring information to you as we can, probably in the print version, on stands in a week…so be sure you’re renewed, or that you online membership is active so you can read it right here at the e-Edition.
