UPDATE 5/14/2019 - A Right Fork of Crummies Creek man, Billy Ray Hardway, 59, has been incarcerated again in Central Regional Jail, following a Calhoun arrest last week.

Hardway had been released from Central Regional Jail last week.

Sheriff Jeff Starcher has now charged Hardway with felony failure to appear, stemming from his failure to appear for court on May 14, 2019, and failure to report to the Calhoun County Sheriff's Office to be hooked up on home confinement, which was a stipulation of his bond.

He was arrested May 6 by the Sheriffs Department for possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver.

His bond has been set at $25,000 cash only.
