    Lavaca County grand jurors handed down eight felony indictments last month, almost all of which were tied to illegal drugs.

    One of those eight cases was returned a sealed indictment, which typically involves cases where an arrest warrant wasn’t yet served.

    An indictment does not imply guilt. It does, however, show prosecutors have sufficient evidence to warrant a trial. A person’s guilt is determined by the courts.

    Indicted on Thursday, Sept. 15 were:

    • Karen Aitkens Beasley, for controlled substance trafficking.

    • Brittany Nicole Burgan, for controlled substance possession.

    • Brionne Kortez Lockhart, for controlled substance possession.

    • Jose Daniel Mora Rodriguez, for controlled substance trafficking.

    • Vincente Rosales, for controlled substance trafficking.

    • Blake Anthony Villareal, for firearm theft.

    • Angelica Davis Weiss, for controlled substance possession.
