Unalaska police say a Juneau man turned himself in over the weekend after being charged with drug possession.

44-year old Robert A- Biddinger was named in a 22-count indictment handed up by a Juneau grand jury on Friday. A 5-thousand dollar warrant was issued for his arrest.  He turned himself in to Unalaska police Saturday evening.

All 22-counts are for felony misconduct involving a controlled substance. Identical charges of 22-felony counts were also filed against 29-year old Donya Owens.

Prosecutors allege that Biddinger and Owens obtained controlled substances by misrepresentation, fraud, forgery, deception, or subterfuge.

Among the witnesses who appeared before a Juneau grand jury on Friday was an Anchorage dentist who specializes in endodontics. At least four pharmacists who work at separate grocery stores in Juneau also testified.

All of the violations allegedly occurred between August and November of last year.

Biddinger was scheduled to make his first court appearance this afternoon by phone from the Unalaska court house.

A 5-thousand dollar warrant was also issued for Owens' arrest, but electronic court records indicate that Owens may still be at large.
