Wednesday Stansbury, charged in a seven-count drug indictment, appeared before Magistrate Judge Robert T. Numbers II, according to electronic court records.

He was appointed a federal public defender and advised of his rights, charges and maximum penalties.

The government moved for detention and Stansbury, of Littleton, was remanded to the custody of marshals pending his July 23 detention hearing set for 10:30 a.m. before Magistrate Judge James E. Gates.

On February 3, 2017, agents executed two search warrants.  During the first more than 50 grams of cocaine, 66 controlled pills, 117 grams of marijuana and a handgun was seized.
