MASON CITY – A Meservey man escaped a felony drug dealing charge last week when he pleaded guilty to misdemeanor drug possession.
Records show that Nicholas Scott Henning was charged with possession of marijuana with intent to deliver in December by the Cerro Gordo County Sheriff’s Office. He originally pleaded not guilty. In March he accepted a deal from prosecutors to plead guilty to 1st offense possession of marijuana, a serious misdemeanor. Henning was sentenced to seven days in jail and ordered to pay $2,000 in court fees and fines.
Last year, Henning reported to the sheriff’s office that he accidentally shot himself in the leg. He was briefly hospitalized.
