    Drug charges against local man bound to court

    Drug charges against a local man stemming from three alleged crack cocaine deliveries in Bradford were bound to McKean County Court on Wednesday.

    Ryan J. Buterbaugh, 19, appeared that day for a preliminary hearing on the county charges before Magisterial District Judge Dominic Cercone. He had no permanent address listed in court documents.

    Court records said on April 29, 2016, at an Amm Street home, Buterbaugh delivered about 2 grams of crack cocaine to a confidential informant with the McKean County Drug task force. On May 3, 2016, he allegedly delivered about 1.5 grams of crack cocaine to a confidential informant on the Kennedy Street bridge between Williams and Miller streets, and on May 24, 2016, he delivered about 2.5 grams of crack cocaine to a confidential informant in a vehicle on North Bennett Street.

    Buterbaugh is charged with three counts of dealing in the proceeds of unlawful activities, all first-degree felonies; four counts of possession with the intent to deliver a controlled substance, all felonies; one count of criminal use of a communication facility, a third-degree felony; and three counts of possession of a controlled substance, all misdemeanors, court records stated.

    He is being held in McKean County Jail in Smethport, and bail has been denied due to a federal court order, court records indicate.

    On Dec. 29, 2016, Buterbaugh was sentenced in McKean County Court for a previous drug case, and he is also being held on federal drug charges.

    He was sentenced last week to a term of nine to 23 months of incarceration with credit for one day of time served on allegations that on Aug. 28, 2015, in Bradford City, he possessed 1.89 grams of cocaine, 11.66 grams of butyryl-fentanyl and 11 glassine bags containing less than 1 gram of butyryl-fentanyl.

    On March 28, Buterbaugh and his brother, Richard Buterbaugh, 24, are scheduled to appear in federal court in Buffalo, N.Y., for a status conference on allegations the pair sold crack cocaine, cocaine and marijuana in Cattaraugus and Erie counties in New York state, court records indicate.
