Accused Chesco Drug Dealer Wanted On Witness Intimidation Charges In Custody
WEST CHESTER, Pa. (CBS) - An accused drug-dealer from Coatesville -- wanted on witness intimidation charges -- is in custody after more than three months on the run.
The Chester County District Attorney's office says 25-year-old Kenneth "War" Wylie (right in above photo) turned himself in after a warrant sweep checked the homes of his mother and girlfriend.
That girlfriend, Chanel Turner (left in above photo) was fired from her job in the Chester County juvenile probation department and is facing multiple felony charges. She allegedly left her office in the Chester County Justice Center, went into a courtroom and told a potential witness against her boyfriend not to show up at a court hearing.
Police say Wylie also showed up at the courthouse to try to scare the witness out of testifying against him.
In addition to prior drug charges, he's also facing felony counts of witness intimidation and conspiracy.
