A Grand Junction man was arrested and faces several felony drug charges.

According to court documents, the Greene County Sheriff’s Office executed a search warrant on June 23rd at 58-year-old Jerry Barker’s home. The deputies found a safe and when Barker provided the combination to open the safe to law enforcement, methamphetamines were found, along with a ledger that allegedly had transactions for drug sales in it. Additionally, deputies found oxycodone that wasn’t in a prescription bottle, along with marijuana and illegal mushrooms. 

Test results from the Division of Criminalistics Laboratory recently came back positive for controlled substances. Barker was arrested on Tuesday and charged with a Class B Felony for manufacturing or intent to deliver less than five grams of methamphetamine, a Class D Felony for failure to affix drug stamp, and two serious misdemeanors for his second offense for possession of marijuana and his first offense for possession of psilocybin (mushrooms).

Barker was booked into the Greene County Jail. Raccoon Valley Radio will bring you more information as it becomes official.
