SAC CITY, Iowa -- A mother and son have pleaded not guilty of growing marijuana in the basement of their Schaller home.
Glenda Turnquist, 65, pleaded not guilty Monday in Sac County District Court to manufacturing a controlled substance, possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance and failure to affix a drug tax stamp.
Her son, Keegan Cross, 42, pleaded guilty Sept. 4 to the same charges.
The two were arrested Aug. 16, when Sac County Sheriff's deputies executed a search warrant at a residence in the 500 block of South Perth Street. According to court documents, deputies found a marijuana growing operation in the basement that included more than 40 plants, grow lights and ventilated grow tents amongst other materials to grow and maintain marijuana plants.
Cross and Turnquist both were placed on probation in 2018 after they pleaded guilty to charges related to a similar growing operation in the same house.
