According to the Pa. online docket sheet, Easton-area attorney Stan Margle is facing new drug charges. He's been charged by Bethlehem Tp Investigator Ed Fox with possession or use of drug paraphernalia stemming from an incident on July 23. Charges were filed on August 5, and a preliminary hearing is scheduled before Magisterial District Judge Dan Corpora on September 9.
As I told you back in February, Margle already faces charges of possession of both controlled substances and drug paraphernalia. He was charged with these drug offenses after he left juvenile court but forgot his bag. In an attempt to determine the owner, Sheriff Deputies opened the bag and discovered that it belonged to Margle. They also discovered what was later determined to be cocaine, along with the paraphernalia facilitating its use. There was also video surveillance showing Margle bringing a satchel into Juvenile Court and then leaving without it. He later returned for the bag, only to discover it had been turned over to county detectives.
Criminal court for the earlier charges is set for August 26.
I will update this post if I can learn additional details.
