1/20/11 - Two of several local residents busted for selling heroin in Hamburg Township have been sentenced. 38-year-old Curtis Hineman will serve 8 months in the Livingston County Jail for his earlier guilty pleas to two charges if delivering less than 50 grams of heroin on October 24th. 20-year-old Shane Kelly pleaded guilty to one count of the same and was sentenced to 91 days of time already served. He must serve three years probation and attend no less than three AA classes every week. Hineman and Kelly, 20-year-old Cody Buck, 30-year-old Jessica Balden, 36-year-old Steven Hineman, and 26-year-old Autumn Lauer were all charged in different cases for delivery of heroin at locations including Chilson Road and M-36, the Hamburg Food Center and in the Kroger parking lot. Buck, a 2008 Pinckney High School graduate, had recently shared his recovery story at a community forum on the dangers of heroin before he was arrested on the delivery charge November 7th. The drug investigations and arrests in October and November were part of a recent crackdown on heroin dealers and users by Hamburg Township Police. A warrant has been issued for Autumn Lauer, who failed to appear in court. (JM)
