20-year-old from Marlboro charged with 15 drug-related crimes for allegedly using teenage girls to sell marijuana
Posted by whitecollarcrimenews on June 22, 2009
Michael Lobianco, of Marlboro, is being held in lieu of $320,000 bail after his arrest on Saturday. Police allege that two girls, 15 and 16, conducted a series of transactions in Keansburg involving marijuana purchased by Lobianco for distribution.
He is charged with two counts of using a juvenile to distribute a controlled dangerous substance, two counts of endangering the welfare of a child, two counts of conspiracy, two counts of possession with the intent to distribute and seven counts of possession with intent to distribute within 1,000 feet of a public building, park or school. In other words, he is facing a ton of problems.
There are no other details of the incident, but I would like to know more about this case. How did the police link these girls to him? Do these girls have any credibility? There are a number of defenses here depending on the evidence. Either the State has some good evidence or they have a few hunches.
Story is here.
