A 34- year- old Brunswick man out on bail for previous drug charges was indicted Dec. 8 for possessing more marijuana than his medical marijuana license allows.

Alex Coron, 34, of Greenwood Road, was indicted by a Cumberland County grand jury for felony possession of scheduled drugs, a Class C felony.

Brunswick Police Detective Rich Cutliffe and Detective Sgt. Jason Pease of the Maine Drug Enforcement Agency initially charged Coron on Nov. 18, 2010, after they found 405 marijuana plants growing in his home, along with a sophisticated growing operation, Cutliffe said at the time.

Coron was released with a deferred disposition, or suspended sentence, and bail conditions, according to Cutliffe.

But on Oct. 19, 2011, MDEA agents performed a bail check at Coron’s home and allegedly discovered more than one pound of processed marijuana and approximately 10 to 12 marijuana plants growing in an unsecured location outside the home.

Conditions of Coron’s permit for medical marijuana and that of another person residing at the residence only allow each permit holder, if they are not caregivers, to possess two- and- a- half ounces of processed marijuana and up to six flowering plants, according to Cutliffe.

Furthermore, he said, “The law says plants have to be in a locked facility and he had them growing outside.”
