Clinton Public Safety and State Drug Agents yesterday had charges for a Laurens County woman. Clinton Public Safety had a Bench Warrant from Clinton Municipal Court from 2012. 47-year-old Romona Gravely Parker was booked in the Johnson Detention Center showing an address of 55 Rolling Hills Lane, Clinton. She was served with the Bench Warrant citing a conviction September 17th, 2012 for Driving under Suspension with a sentence of $652 or 30 days in jail.
She was also served with a warrant in which a D-HEC agent states that on March 11th, 2014 Ms. Parker did willfully obtain a quantity of Hydrocodone, a schedule III controlled substance, by forgery. This allegedly occurred at a Clinton pharmacy. The warrant states that when the practitioner noted on a prescription was asked if the prescription was authorized by him, he confirmed it was not. The warrant on the drug acquisition charge noted an address for the defendant on Marler Road, Gray Court.
A $5,000 personal recognizance bond was set on the drug charge. Romona Gravely Parker remained in the Johnson Detention Center this morning, based on the Bench Warrant.
