In a verdict delivered on January 29, 2024, Titus County Court sentenced 41-year-old Cassie Jill Nichols of Mt Pleasant to 14 months in state jail. Nichols was convicted on two counts, including Possession of a Controlled Substance and Fraudulent Use and Possession of Identification information.
The charges stemmed from two separate incidents. One involved a fraud charge and a drug-related charge, both linked to an arrest in February 2023. The second drug charge, specifically for possession of a drug in the PG 1/1-B category, originated from an arrest in March 2022. This sentencing reflects Nichols' status as a repeat offender.
Nichols was taken into custody immediately after the sentencing was announced.
