(Stillwater, Okla.) — A Drumright man who was arrested by the Oklahoma Highway Patrol was given a five-year prison term Friday for possessing hydrocodone in the presence of an 8-year-old child in his vehicle on May 5, 2013, on Highway 33 east of Cushing in Payne County.
Charles Harrison Davis, 48, pleaded guilty Friday to that felony drug charge as well as driving on a revoked license. As part of a plea bargain, Davis was also given $1,600 in fines and assessments by Payne County District Judge Phillip Corley on Friday.
Four years ago, Davis, who was then living in Cushing, was given two concurrent five-year prison terms after he was arrested twice within a month on assorted drug charges in Payne County, court records show.
Davis had pleaded guilty to possessing methamphetamine, marijuana and alprazolam, along with drug paraphernalia, all on March 13, 2010, in a case investigated by the Payne County Sheriff’s Office.
Davis had also pleaded guilty to possession of marijuana with intent to distribute, possession of drug paraphernalia, driving with a revoked license and failure to stop at a stop sign, as well as no contest to failure to pay taxes to the state and to carry insurance verification, all on Feb. 13, 2010, in a case investigated by Cushing police.
Davis was apparently released from prison in January 2012, after serving about one and one-half years of those two five-year prison terms from Payne County, court records show.
Davis had also previously been convicted in 2007 in Tulsa County of drug possession with intent to distribute for which he was given a four-year suspended sentence, court records show.
Davis had also previously been convicted in 2001 in Pawnee County of drug possession and illegal possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony for which he was given a five-year suspended sentence, court records show.
