Police: 7 arrested for growing, selling drugs

Seven people, including several teens and a 59-year-old grandmother, are facing charges for their alleged involvement in an operation that sold drugs to high school students.

Luke A. Sneeringer was selling LSD and psilocyn mushrooms to students at Delone Catholic High School and had friends selling drugs to students at Littlestown, South Western, Hanover and New Oxford high schools, according to the affidavit of probable cause filed with District Judge Daniel Bowman.

Sneeringer was also selling, growing and overseeing the growth and sale of hash oil, marijuana, MDMA and ecstasy, according to the affidavit.

The investigation, conducted by the Adams County Drug Task Force, Conewago Township Police Department and other law enforcement agencies, began in May, according to a news release from Conewago Township Police Department.
Court documents allege the following:
Police met with confidential informants on May 26 and Aug. 18 to monitor controlled purchases of hash oil and LSD from Sneeringer, according to the affidavit.
In August, Sneeringer went to the apartment of 18-year-old James Kinsella to pick up 54 tabs of LSD from his apartment in the first block of South Queen Street in Littlestown, not far from the borough police station, documents state. Kinsella was selling the drug for Sneeringer but wanted to stop because he was afraid of getting in trouble, police said.

Sneeringer took the 54 tabs and sold eight to an informant for $80, according to the affidavit.

Police met with Kinsella and a friend, who was not identified because she is under the age of 18, about the LSD on Aug. 19. The 17-year-old female was allegedly in the apartment when Kinsella made drug deals in the past and identified people from Littlestown and Delone Catholic high schools who purchased the drug.
She was arrested and charged, according to a news release from Conewago Township Police Department.
When police met with Sneeringer that same day, he allegedly let them search his room at a residence in the first block of Conewago Drive in Conewago Township.

Police found several pieces of drug paraphernalia, more than $840 cash, more than one gram of marijuana, 44 tablets of LSD and more than nine grams of hash oil. They also searched his cellphone and found several drug-related photos, videos and text messages, according to the affidavit. Some of the videos were of high school students taking drugs.

When going through his phone, police also found texts from Sneeringer to Daulton A. Speilman, 18, and Kathy D. Speilman, 59, in regard to growing psilocyn mushrooms in Kathy Speilman's home, located on the 500 block of Broadway in Hanover, the affidavit states.

Sneeringer allegedly set up a mushroom grow in the home. Both Daulton Speilman and his grandmother knew what was taking place and helped Sneeringer maintain the mushrooms, according to the affidavit.

Police found 32 grams of fully developed psilocyn mushrooms and paraphernalia, according to the affidavit.

When police confronted Kathy Speilman about why she allowed the mushrooms to be grown there, she allegedly said she would not let the boys cook methamphetamine because it’s flammable, but she let her grandson do whatever he wanted in her residence. She told police she tried to guide him in the past but was unsuccessful, the affidavit states.Police then turned their investigation to a 28-year-old Hanover man.

On Sept. 2, police searched a home on the 200 block of Centennial Avenue in Hanover where Zachary Laughman lived. They found a marijuana plant, mushroom spores and drug paraphernalia, according to the affidavit.

Laughman allegedly told police Sneeringer approached him about setting up a mushroom grow, which he agreed to.

Later in September, an informant allegedly told police Sneeringer was selling MDMA, also known as "Molly", after Delone Catholic High School's senior prom.

Eric Weisbrod, Greg Hollinger, Samuel Gates and Sean Quinlan, the attorneys representing those charged, were not immediately available to comment.

Sneeringer declined to comment.

The Adams County District Attorney's Office charged the following people during the investigation, according to a news release from Conewago Township Police Department:

James Kinsella, of Littlestown: conspiracy, criminal use of a communication facility, corruption of minors and manufacture, delivery or possession with intent to manufacture or deliver. He was released from Adams County Prison on $100,000 unsecured bail.
Daulton A. Speilman, of Hanover: conspiracy, drug use, criminal use of a communication facility and manufacture, delivery or possession with intent to manufacture or deliver. He was released from Adams County Prison on $15,000 bail.
Kathy D. Speilman, of Hanover: conspiracy, drug use, criminal use of a communication facility and manufacture, delivery or possession with intent to manufacture or deliver. She was released from Adams County Prison on $15,000 unsecured bail.

Wait..i thought it was illegal for le to search through your phone, or anything with a hard drive correct me if Im wrong, but a few months back i recall reading several articles about it!  If so, i would get an attorney and fight, fight, fight that bs case.  As started already,  This whole "bust" was probably so exaggerated that everything they find is likely to b less than half of what these pigs "claim" they find.
