Couple Sold Cocaine Out of Montgomery Home: Police

A cardiac nurse and her boyfriend face felony drug charges after allegedly selling cocaine out of a home in the 1300 block of Royal Drive in Montgomery.

Leslie Farwell and Phillip Hill, both 35, were charged with felony possession of cocaine and manufacturing/delivering cocaine after a search warrant was executed at their home, according to the Beacon News. Hill was also charged with marijuana possession.

Officers from the Montgomery and Aurora police departments had set up a perimeter around the home Aug. 6 when they found Hill sitting in a minivan in the driveway. He was taken into custody, and more than $2,000 was found in his pocket, the Beacon reported.

Police forced entry into the home after no one answered the door, and found children ages 12 and 13 in the living room. Hill’s stepfather was in the basement, according to the Beacon.

A 53-gram rock of cocaine, along with a scale, plastic bags and other drug paraphernalia were also found in the home, along with a jacket belonging to Farwell that had 84 grams of cocaine in the pocket. A small bag of marijuana was also discovered, and more than $3,900 in cash was seized, police said.

Farwell, who was not home when the search warrant was executed, was arrested at the hospital where she works.
