A Xenia Twp. man accused of operating a methamphetamine lab discovered in a home in Greene County has been found guilty on all charges.

A Common Pleas jury deliberated for about two hours Tuesday before returning the verdict in the case against Noel Mangan just after 6 p.m.

The trial on charges that involved manufacturing of and trafficking in methamphetamines began Monday.

County Assistant Prosecutor Cheri Stout said Mangan was convicted on three counts of aggravated drug trafficking, one count of illegal manufacture of methamphetamine, two counts of illegal assembly of chemicals, and single counts of possession of criminal tools.

Sentencing is to occur later this week, likely Friday, she said.

Mangan faces at least 14 years in prison. He was remanded into custody and remains in the Greene County Jail.

“This is someone who we consider a threat to the community and want him off the streets,” Stout said.

“We had video of him selling meth to undercover officers as well as manufacturing what he sold.”

Mangan, of 1313 E. Hoop Road, was arrested March 27 after an investigation led officials there. They confirmed at trial that undercover officers purchased methamphetamine from the suspect at the residence.

This case wasn’t Mangan’s first visit to the courthouse.

In 2008, he was arrested after his probation officer discovered a possible meth lab in the garage at the same residence on East Hoop Road. A jury found him not guilty in that case, Bruce May of ACE Task Force said in March.

May said the current investigation had been going for several months and was launched based upon numerous complaints regarding the number of visitors in and out of the residence.

The suspect is a known drug abuser and dealer, according to May, and has been arrested multiple times on charges that include violating a protection order, domestic violence and drug abuse.

“We have bought several hundred dollars worth from this location,” May said of Mangan’s residence.

One of the jurors, Richard Cunningham, told News Center 7’s Layron Livingston that the jury believed the prosecution had a strong case.

“Everybody, I think, paid a lot of attention in the deliberations and we revisited a lot of the evidence in the deliberation,” Cunningham said. “Everybody wanted to do a good job.”
