A Lawrence County grand jury this week handed up an indictment on an Ironton man accused of trafficking drugs through the mail.

Ian Terril Edens, 25, of 517 N. Sixth St., was indicted on two second-degree counts of trafficking in marijuana. One count alleged Edens was in the vicinity of a school, while the other alleged he was in the vicinity of a minor.

Edens was arraigned in Ironton Municipal Court last week and bond was set at $50,000 cash or surety.

He was arrested following an investigation of two suspicious packages at the Ironton Post Office.

One of the packages contained 10.1 pounds of marijuana and was addressed to Edens at 715 Walnut St.

The other contained approximately 9 pounds marijuana and was addressed to Nicole Jones at 517 N. Sixth St.

The following is information compiled from the office of Prosecuting Attorney Brigham Anderson on indictments from this month’s grand jury:

• Amanda Williams, 33, of 31 Twin Valley Road, Portsmouth, two counts of possession of drugs;
