From the Courts: State District Court - Peck sentenced to probation on drug charge

Natasha Lynn Peck was sentenced in state District Court to three years of probation on a drug charge.

Peck was charged Oct. 24, 2018, with felony counts of criminal possession of dangerous drugs and endangering the welfare of a child when officers investigating a report of drug use found her and several other people along with a 3-year-old child in a residence with marijuana and methamphetamine.

Under a plea agreement, Peck pleaded guilty to the drug possession charge Feb. 15 and the prosecutors dropped the endangerment charge.

April 15, District Judge Kaydee Snipes Ruiz imposed a three-year deferred imposition of sentence on Peck and ordered her to pay fees and surcharges.

If Peck abides by all conditions of her release on the deferred imposition, she can petition to have the charge struck from her record.
