Monday, February 6th, 2023 -- 3:00 PM

An Augusta man facing charges after marijuana plants were discovered at his home was sentenced in Eau Claire County Court.

The plants were discovered because there was a fire at the home of Donnie Plamp in the Town of Bridge Creek back in 2021. Fire crews told authorities they discovered the plants in the home. When asked about them, Plamp said they were for personal use. Investigators also found 290 grams of marijuana leaves and a pipe that tested positive for meth.

Plamp was found guilty of, due to a no contest plea, possession of drug paraphernalia and possession of THC. Another charge was dismissed and read in and two other charges had a deferred sentence or prosecution. Plamp was sentenced to costs.
