Chenango grand jury files felonies against five defendants

NORWICH – This week the Chenango County grand jury indicted five people for committing local felonies, including drug possession, thefts from vehicles and burglary.
Two people were indicted for felony drug charges after police found 100 small plastic baggies, a scale, and nearly 36 grams of meth in a vehicle.
Bridgette M. Monday, was indicted for third and fourth degree criminal possession of a controlled substance, class B and C felonies. She was also indicted for tampering with physical evidence.
Zachary R. Bumpus, was also indicted for third and fourth degree criminal possession of a controlled substance.
According to the indictment on March 24, in the City of Norwich along Cortland Street, police discovered the two in possession of the drugs.
Police said Monday had attempted to intentionally hide a Tupperware container that had suspected drug residue and plastic baggies under the driver's side floorboard of a vehicle during a search.
Paul J. Knuth Jr., 35, and Samuel C. Furlong, 36, were indicted for third degree grand larceny, second degree criminal mischief, both D class felonies.
According to the grand jury, on August 23, Furlong and Knuth stole seven catalytic converters from a Norwich dealership worth a total of about $12,560, and in the process of removing those parts they allegedly cut them out of the vehicles causing more than $13,820 in damages.
According to the Chenango County Sheriff’s Office, the two removed the parts from several vehicles and then sold them out of county.
The two were arrested in mid-September and released on appearance tickets.
Dillion W. Clapp was indicted for third degree burglary, a class D felony, after he allegedly stole vehicle parts and tools from a private garage between July 28 and Aug. 5 in the Town of Otselic, along Old State Highway 26.
At grand jury proceedings, the district attorney’s office presents evidence against those they wish to prosecute and the jury decides if there is enough reasonable cause to charge a person.
Jurors serve at roughly three-month intervals and typically convene once a month.
Defendants will be summoned to appear before the Chenango County Court and enter a plea to the indictments at a later date. All are innocence until proven guilty in a court of law.
