MORE CHARGES IN SALEM DRUG BUST

A Tazewell County man has been charged with providing marijuana to a Roanoke College adviser arrested last week on drug charges.

Marty Roben Stacy, 29, of Claypool Hill, was charged on Dec. 2 and is out on bond, Salem police said Monday. Stacy is the brother-in-law of Robert Bess, who was arrested on charges of distributing marijuana and Valium at the college.

Bess was suspended from his job last week, according to Teresa Thomas, director of the college's public relations department.

Stacy was implicated in a secretly taped conversation between an informant and Bess that police monitored, according to a search warrant affidavit.
