A Bradford woman accused of making methamphetamine in her apartment with her boyfriend waived a preliminary on Wednesday before District Judge Dominic Cercone.

Teresa Y. Doner, 44, faces 44 counts in total — all conspiracy charges — which include manufacture/possess with the intent to deliver meth, possessing precursors, operating a meth lab and risking a catastrophe, all felonies; 35 counts of possession of meth and five counts of recklessly endangering another person, all misdemeanors.

According to court records, officers observed drug paraphernalia and precursors of methamphetamine in the apartment when they were there to arrest someone else on a separate retail theft.

There were five people living in the apartment, and another family in an apartment above it, officers noted.

While subsequently executing a search warrant at the apartment, law enforcement officials  reported seizing items including “five plastic bottles containing white solids which is known as a ‘one pot shake and bake method,’ six gas generators with lithium stripping, 89 pseudoephedrine pills in blister packs, instant cold packs, camp fuels, acetone, denatured alcohol and salts.

Doner admitted to police that she had been conspiring with Terry E. Sorensen, 41, her boyfriend, since Jan. 1 to assist him in cooking meth with the “one pot shake and bake method,” court records allege.

Police said Doner and Sorensen worked as a team to obtain the materials to manufacture meth, both for their own habits and for sale, according to the complaints.

Sorensen was scheduled for a preliminary hearing Wednesday on similar charges, but his hearing was postponed until May 9. He is in McKean County Jail in lieu of $75,000 bail.

Doner was first jailed on $75,000 bail on March 29, but she is now free on $10,000 unsecured bail.

Bradford man accused of hiding from police waives hearing

A Bradford man who is accused of hiding from police waived a preliminary hearing on Wednesday before District Judge Dominic Cercone.

Jonathan W. Colts, 33, is charged with one count of flight to avoid apprehension, a third-degree felony.

According to the criminal complaint, around 8 p.m. April 6, Bradford City Police officers heard that Colts — who was wanted on a felony warrant — and another person who was wanted on a warrant were at 82 Summer St. Officers surrounded the house and knocked on the door. No one answered, but they could see people inside.

Several minutes later, an officer saw Colts in an upstairs rear window, made eye contact with him and told him to come down; Colts didn’t, court records stated.

After an officer left to get a search warrant, a female came to the door and was arrested on a probation warrant. She gave police consent to search the residence and told them Colts was in the attic, the complaint stated.

Police went inside and ordered Colts to come down, but he allegedly refused. A few minutes later, police saw Colts go onto the roof, but they were able to get him back inside through the window and arrest him, according to court records.

Colts is free on unsecured bail in the case.

Colts was arraigned the same day as his arrest on a prior case, too.

In that case, filed May 16, 2017, he is charged with seven counts of forgery, all second-degree felonies; and theft by unlawful taking, a first-degree misdemeanor, court records stated. He has a last day to plea conference scheduled for June 21 in McKean County Court.
