A Drumright couple was arrested on alleged charges of trafficking Methamphetamines. Michael Steven Hall, 66, and Patricia Gonzalis, 52, were arrested following a traffic stop in a restaurant parking lot. Around thirty minutes before they were arrested, Cushing police had been notified by Payne County sheriff's office that Hall had an outstanding arrest warrant from Creek County and was possibly at the Cushing Wal-Mart. A Cushing officer spotted Hall driving his vehicle with a passenger who turned out to be Gonzalis.
Hall was arrested on a bench warrant for failing to appear in court on Jan. 12, 2023 on a Creek County charge of possessing methamphetamines with intent to distribute, maintaining an apartment in Drumright for keeping and selling a drug. Gonzalis was arrested on an outstanding warrant from Grant County for drug possession.. On search of the vehicle there were 73.1 grams of crystal meth, 25 small plastic baggies and a glass smoking pipe.
Gonzalis has an extensive record of drug convictions and was released from prison in 2018 after serving 15 months of a five year sentence for drug possession. Hall was released from prison in 2017 after serving eight months of a three year sentence for drug possession.
If convicted of alleged trafficking more than 20 grams of methamphetamines, Hall and Gonzalis could each be sentenced to a life prison term.
