On June 6, 2021 at approximately 9:38p.m. deputies with the Des Moines County Sheriff’s Office were dispatched to the area of DMC Highway 99 and Tama Rd. near the road closure for a welfare check. Deputies were advised the complainant could hear someone calling for help in the area but could not locate anyone. Deputies arrived and located a male subject in the construction area who was identified as Justin Tyler Marshall, age 38, of Burlington, IA. Marshall had two warrants for his arrest for probation violation and failure to appear for probation hearing. Marshall was placed under arrest on those warrants. Deputies then located loose pills in Marshall’s possession which were identified as a controlled substance. Marshall was charged with possession of a controlled substance 3rd or subsequent offense, a class D Felony. Marshall was transported to the Des Moines County Jail. Marshall’s bond is set at $7,000.00 with $2000.00 being cash only.
In the interest of keeping Henry County residents informed, the Henry County Sheriff’s office has requested KILJ post the daily jail count. During the jail referendum campaign it was publicized that the jail would be able to house additional inmates from surrounding counties and this would generate revenue for Henry County.
