Brown v. State

BISHOP, Judge.

On June 10, 1987, a jury in the Circuit Court for Calvert County (Bowen, J.) convicted Robert Brown, appellant, of possession of a controlled dangerous substance, PCP, with the intent to distribute and simple possession pursuant to MD.ANN.CODE, art. 27 §§ 286 and 287, respectively. On August 25, 1987, the trial court merged the offenses and sentenced Brown to forty years, 1 twenty-six years suspended, for possession of PCP with the intent to distribute, and fined him $20,000.00.
