Noted Easton area attorney Stanley Margle, as of this moment, is a resident of Northampton County jail. He was scheduled to provide a drug testing sample to the pre-trial office yesterday. He appeared but was unwilling to comply with his bail conditions, which require him to submit to periodic drug testing. He has refused to do so since October 7, 2025
Senior Judge William Mahon, a Chester County jurist brought in to hear Margle's case, is not playing. Late yesterday morning, he ordered Margle to provide a sample or be jailed
At a 2 pm bail hearing, Margle was sentenced to 30-60 days. I do not have that Order but his docket sheet shows that he has definitely been jailed.
Margle is still Wilson Borough Solicitor, at least as of its January reorganization meeting. At a hearing with NorCo Council in which he advocated for a tax break to convert the vacant Dixie Cup factory into luxury apartments, he actually argued with a Council member (Kevin Lott) who supported the TIF.
Margle currently is facing drug charges in two separate incidents at the courthouse. In both cases, he forgot a satchel that contained either cocaine or drug paraphernalia.
No disciplinary charges have yet been lodged against Margle by the Pa Disciplinary Board

I’ll try not to lose sleep over this.
