A Garnett man who decided to not stick around for his October sentencing last year on felony drug convictions in Anderson County District Court is still at large, and the subject of new charges related to the absence. Forty-two year-old Garland White was arrested in April 2020. But due to COVID delays, wasn’t charged until the following August. He pled not guilty in June of 2021 and was arraigned on charges following a June 28, 2021 preliminary hearing. He failed to appear at an initial jury trial in Anderson County in January 2022 and was re-arrested in April. He was again granted bond before his August conviction on the charges, then no-showed his sentencing which was set for October 12th of last year.
If you know where White is, you are encourage to call the Anderson County Sheriff’s Office, Garnett Police or 911.
